A four-seater cabriolet for £6K

I am about to spend £6K on a four seater convertible. For this money I can get a newer shape CLK, an Audi A4 or a SAAB 9-3. Out of these which would you go for and what model? I do not do high mileage so economy is not really an issue. Thanks.

CLK, but any hood problems can be eyewateringly expensive to rectify. Obviously with all these cars you need to inspect the hoods minutely because a new one is more than £2,000.

Much better second attempt at CLK. Goes well, handles well and is comfortable. Attractive looks.
