Coupe vs roadster

Try getting two front tyres in the boot of a roadster (225/40/18)...

The boot is a really useful feature on the coupe, no good for long DIY items but swallows plenty of luggage.

I put my tyres in the passenger seat when I run them up to be fitted. Realy easy to get them in, with the roof down. :D :thumbsup:

Maybe, but you can't go on holiday with the Mrs and a similar volume of luggage... :P

An excellent reason for having a roadster. :wink: :thumbsup:

(Now how do I lock the computer so that Mrs G doesn't read this.) :lol:
 
If I had no family and just managed on a single car, I would consider a Coupe first, or maybe a Roadster with a hard top for Winter, if it was feasible with storage etc.

However, being able to have a second/weekend car and driving an Estate vehicle all week, I enjoy the difference a soft-top Roadster gives me. Its the chalk & cheese effect that does it for me. Luxury and comfort all week, in a plush lazy automatic, and then speed, acceleration and fresh air on the weekend.

I love jumping in the Zed on a Saturday/Sunday morning, but equally come Monday morning, the commute to work in comfort is just as satisfying.
