The best roadster in my opinion. Super reliable. Low running costs. Except if the electric roof stops working. Fun to drive and these days you could pick one up for a price of a fiesta and still looks like a 20 grand car. Try to go for a pre 2006 as the newer engines with individual fuel injectors are absolute pain to maintain. The early ones are built like tanks.

This is a very good high performance sports car. It is mechanically very good, although the electrics are in need of improvement as shorting may occur in damp comnditions. Fuel consumption is around 25 miles to the galllon,which is reasonable given the engine size.

Drinks petrol, you feel every bump in the road and the boot only holds two medium suitcases - BUT what a fantastic car to drive. My only regret is that I didn't buy one earlier!

This is a very high performance car with very good acceleration. It is fun to drive, especially on open roads , with the roof down. It does not perform particularly well in congested urban environments. It is mechanicaly very reliable, but performance declines if one of the six fuel sensors needs changing. It is economic to run given its engine capacity. It holds the road poorly in snow and ice.
