BMW Z3 (1997 - 2003 )  

Cockpit is a good place to be, even on a top-down motorway cruise.

Doesn't appeal to keen drivers. Soft-tops can leak.

Also Consider

  • Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class 1996
    Excellent build quality, terrific engineering and a very good crash test rating. Much better drive from 2000 onwards.
  • Mazda MX5 1998
    Delightful handling, easy to use every day and reliable if not abused. Low running costs. Plenty around at keen prices.
  • Toyota MR2 2000
    Great fun to drive. More minimalist than previous version. Goes and handles just like a sports-inspired roadster should.
  • BMW Z4 2003
    Better looking and a sportier drive than its Z3 predecessor.
