Slow passenger window motor, alarm immobiliser kept going off for no reason, amazingly sensitive to stone chips.
Beautiful car to look at - the best looking cabrio in it's class. Chassis is brilliant, and doesn't shake too much. Grip and handling top of the league. 135bhp is not enough - needs more power. Good boot space for a cabrio - holiday luggage for 4 no problem. Superb standard CD sound system. Dreadful dealers - technically inept and prone to lying - they told me they had replaced the alarm system when in fact they had disconnected the siren!
Very, very susceptible to stone chips.
1.8 model, not nearly enough power.
I bought a 1998 2.0 ltr last year, loved the car, but had appalling dealer problems, problems with car they could not fix and 1 year later they have replaced my car with a 2001 model, but I have to agree with the dealer criticism, just don't let it put you off what a lovely car it is.
Beautiful looking car. nice drive drive doesn't shake hardly. but problems with the alarm and also drivers side motor for the window damaged. Also for a 2.0i engine its not performing as you would think. apart from alarm and window motors it's a beautiful looking car!
