Best looking car that I have ever owned
I purchased this car with a little trepidation, reason being the reported expensive running costs.
However, my fears have been somewhat subdued due to the fact that after one tank fill I am returning a 30mpg on urban short runs and 44.5 mpg on long distance ( partly motorway) .
I can only compare driving this vehicle with a skipper of a luxury liner as apposed to a weekend sailor in a rowing boat.
Incidentally, surprisingly, road noise is very much less with the roof down than roof up.
The vehicle has done 66000 miles. It didn't need it, however, I had the fluid changed in the auto box, just for self satisfaction.
