Which luxury cabrio?
I have an Audi A3 Cab 2.0L auto - efficient but dull. I dream of an SL level of car while just under 70 years old, but for the best engines we are looking at 2012+ and that costs mega-bucks with surprising depreciation.
Next yearss A3 Cabriolet looks a sensible buy but be mid-year before good discounted ex-demos are available. Saw a comment by you regarding the Lexus IS 250C being better than Bentley and your test report.
I like the left-field, non-obvious choice but worry regarding fuel consumption and road tax. Same money could buy me nearly a new Lexus or Audi.
Heart says Lexus brain says Audi. Your impartial view is..?

I'm changing my 3 year old CLK 200 sport cabriolet. I really want a metal folding roof as we want to do some long trips in Europe and I am not too happy leaving a soft top overight in many different places!...
I am considering buying a Volkswagen Eos but I have heard that there have been problems with leaking roofs. This is also now quite an old model, shortly to be deleted. Any thoughts?
Do you think the new Golf Cabriolet with 2.0 diesel will be a good long term car to own? This would be my 'retirement' car. My other choice is a Scirrocco.

Incredibly refined. Barely any top-down turbulence. Metal-folding roof retracts smoothly. Effortless performance.

Impressively refined with a smooth ride. Folding metal roof means it’s as quiet as a coupe. AMG versions are brutally fast.
