Looking for a four-seat cabrio...
I am looking for a cabriolet/soft-top in very good order. I have a MX5, but would like +2 back-seat and auto roof-lift. Any recommendations?

Hi Andrew,
There are lots of good choices out there. How about a BMW 3 Series Convertible, with four seats, a folding hard-top and the rare(ish) petrol engine: https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/bmw/3-series/used-2009-bmw-3-series-320i-m-spo-dublin-fpa-1382669899135858805 ?
If you need something a bit cheaper, then what about a Ford Focus convertible? https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/ford/focus/used-2011-ford-focus-cc-zetec-2-0-louth-fpa-182886286392761343
Or a burgeoning classic in the shape of the Saab 9-3 convertible? https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/saab/9-3/used-2009-saab-9-3-1-9-ttid-aero-waterford-fpa-8771278127963479999
Or a Volvo C70 convertible, which can be picked up for peanuts these days? https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/volvo/c70/used-2006-volvo-c70-2-4i-se-2dr-c-dublin-fpa-79976461443697
None of those, it must be said, are going to be as much fun to drive as your MX-5, but of them the BMW probably comes the closest.
