I'm thinking of getting a cabriolet but they are so pricey.
My mate at work has just bought an S reg megane cabriolet but that's out of my price range,
What Cabriolet could I get ??? (under £4000)
Are there any with decent insurance ??
Oh yeah I don't want one of them little pug 205 thingy's

MX5 is your best option as there cheap and readily available...just you will need to change career and take up hairdressing!!!

Theres an Escort one on scoobynet for sale. Personally I think cabs are for homos. Spend the money on a decent car, you won't get anything decent for 4-5k

I'd go with this also. 1.8 16v, bought 130bhp, 130mph ish top end, leather, they have their problems like a lot of old cars, but still nice looking as standard.
Also, Astra GTE 16v convertable
