    Advantages Advantages Open-top motoring, feels quite sporty to drive, practical

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Hairdresser image, Rip-off Ford Dealers

    I currently drive a purple R-Reg Ford Escort Calypso Cabriolet. Just to clear this up at the outset, I am not and never have been a hairdresser. On hot summer days like this, there is nothing better than the joys of open-top motoring. Even commuting to work on the M4 or being stuck in a jam on the North Circular are enjoyable if you have the wind in your hair or can at least feel the rays of sun on your face ane arms. I'm 6 foot 6, which limits my options for convertibles. I simply can't fit in some of the smaller 2-seater sports cars and most of the recently designed mainstream models such as ... more

    Advantages Advantages Electric Roof - Fantastic, Blonde HiLights, Car Turns Heads,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Rain :(

    I own a Ford Escort 1.6i Cabriolet, and she is beautiful. She is a H Reg so getting on a bit now but she still turns heads while out driving in the summer. Roof down she is smart, sexy and so much fun. Roof up she feels just like a normal car, no rain, wind or cold getting in under her tightly fitted hood. None of that tacky plastic fake back window either - real heated glass, perfect for those frosty mornings! Anti-roll bar so you feel safe, even with the roof off. My car is modified ie Alloys, lowered, and she sticks to those corners like glue. Sound system very good too. Spacious inside ... more

    Advantages Advantages Lovely to drive

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Body part MAY be difficult to find

    I have a 1994 1.6. I have had it now for 5 months and use it daily. Fuel consumption is very good and it has been very realiable. I find it very comfortable to drive and accomodates a family of 5 easily, it is spacious. Although you do lose some boot space as compared to a hatchback, but I feel this is due to the room needed for the hood when folded and strenghtning of the vehicle. Body parts are slightly difficult to come by, which may be due to the age of the vehicle; but joining one of the many owner clubs is a gods send as the others will help. Not all hoods leak, if the hood is fitted ... more
