Can you recommend a reliable, good-looking, two-seater sports car?

I have £30,000 cash to spend on a two-seater sports car. Now, hopefully, with better weather and improved prospects on the horizon, what would you advise to buy? The looks and street cred are important, preferably a classic look and I want something reliable. Performance is not a top priority. Don't want MG, Triumph or an MX-5. Any ideas? Many Thanks.

How about a Jaguar F-Type? It's a very stylish choice available as a coupe or convertible. A Porsche Boxster or Cayman could be a good alternative. None of these will be cheap to run, though. A Mazda MX-5 is unbeatable if that's what you're after.

Stunning looks. Incredible sound. All-wheel drive versions are grippy and fun.
A true everyday sports car with plenty of power. Engineering that gives it a truly dynamic character.
Fantastic driving dynamics. Very usable. Superb value in its class.
Just as good to drive as the soft-top. More secure. Arguably more stylish.
