I don't like cabriolets but I am not sure which I prefer the megane or the ph2 19.
Probably the megane back but the 19's nose.
it looks in decent nick anyway, nice car that way. |

The amount of money they go for is silly though. |

it cost me £3,200 with brand new roof, 12 months warranty etc from a dealer so weren't too bad
they do hold their value,
i've seen similar going for £3000 still!
i like cabriolets and they are not as common as the likes of the escorts golfs etc |

I wasn't too fond of convertibles in the first place. hell, why would you remove the thing that stabilizes the car the most in the first place???
but then a mate (the one I do renault19world.de with) bought one for his girlfriend. it was white, had the F3P single point engine at first, but got heavily modded. a revised 16v was implanted and the car totally resprayed. here's a pic of it:
I don't like some of the mods (esp. color, front bumper, longer hood) as I prefer my cars standard but the engine is sweet. one thing though, it is a 4-seater and I had a go in the backseat last weekend. I'm not exactly small at 1.95m so every speed above 50kph is hard to bear.
they normally use this car as a two seater with the wind-breaker behind the front seats. keeps the wind out of the cockpit.
my favourite is a nice and clean ph.I 16v convertible though
btw, the two major cabrio markets in Europe are the UK and Germany - both not exactly known for great weather. go figure |
