Recommend a sports car capable of carrying two people and a large dog?
We have a new puppy that is going to grow into quite a large dog. Are there any two seat or 2+2 sports cars on the market that are in the mould of the old Reliant Scimitar GTE or Lancia HPE?

Fine riding and handling and stunning looking coupe just £400 more than the five-door hatch. Sporty 220GT launched February 2015 to sit below RenaultSport Megane.

Handling ability is a huge asset and it remains the benchmark for its class. Affordable with reasonable running costs for a hot hatch.

Really good looking coupe, on theme of 1800ES and 480. Best with 2.5 turbo engine and 17-inch wheels. Outstanding handling. 2.0D Powershift auto works well.

Huge amounts of grip. Superb handling. Free-revving 2.0-litre non-turbo engine produces 200PS.

Fine handling and enjoyable to drive, sweet-shifting manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, surprisingly practical for a sports car, gets Apple CarPlay which you don’t with the Toyota GT86.
