The C70 Coupé is now dead, but the Convertible version lives on. It makes a welcome alternative to the executive convertible sector competing with Saab, BMW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz.

3 out of 5

The C70 Coupé is now dead, but the Convertible version lives on. It makes a welcome alternative to the executive convertible sector competing with Saab, BMW, Audi and Mercedes-Benz. It's getting on a bit but still makes a great place to be for four people on a sunny day and is practical enough for year round usage.

 Easily accomodates 4 adults in style , in comfort and more space than you think in the boot.

 For a 2 door it can hold 4 passengers comfortably. I also love having air conditioning and heated seats.
