    evening all, looking for some help choosing a new car......

    im looking at either a 2004 Peugeot 307CC
    or a 2004/5 Mini Cooper
    or an older (2001) MR2

    Ideally looking to go convertible - so not too many Mini's out there.

    Any thoughts for me? I hear the 307CC isnt great as its so heavy but how would the MR2 be comfort wise?

    Also the Mini is a bit of a cliche so might like something a bit different....

    If it's a small convertible you're after then maybe have a look at the mazda mx5. Supposed to be a really great handling car and quite reliable. Not speaking from experience now on that one.

    +1 on the mx-5. Cracking car, and with the cars you're mentioning a new model one could be within budget. I honestly wouldn't even bother with the 307-known for electrical problems and can let water in. If you like the mini, its supposed to be a decent convertible. The MR2 would be my choice out of the three you've mentioned

    It's hard to look beyond the MX-5 when it comes to small two seater convertibles. Cracking car to drive.
