Also Consider

  • Toyota MR2 2000
    Great fun to drive. More minimalist than previous version. Goes and handles just like a sports-inspired roadster should.
  • Mazda MX5 1998
    Delightful handling, easy to use every day and reliable if not abused. Low running costs. Plenty around at keen prices.
  • BMW Z3 1997
    Cockpit is a good place to be, even on a top-down motorway cruise.
  • MGF 1995
    Practical everyday roadster with a surprising amount of luggage space for a mid-engined car. Decent handling. Plenty of used ones around.
