how does having the roof down affect the boot space? by that video it looks like it takes up all of the boot?

Enjoy it! :drivesaf:

But even me, as quite a big diesel fan, would have difficulty choosing it as the fuel of choice in a drop-top. Smelling fumes and the noise as you go along would put me off...

it's actually suprisingly quiet and refined, and as for smelling noise, have you got a wierd extra sense Steve? I can't really see how it will be useful, but who am I to argue....:rofl:

Is it the PD or CR engine Graham?

:rofl: I've been in an A4 TDi Cabrio and you could smell the diesel when you were stationary - in traffic, wind in the wrong direction etc.

Also didn't seem to be that stylish, as you turn up to somewhere and it sounds ever so slightly like a tractor. Now I don't mind that in a hatchback, or a saloon, or basically anything else.... other than a cabrio.

It's a PD Tom, the CRD's were way out of our price range, although more desirable.

Steve, the Mad Wife wanted a diesel, and I prefer the driving characteristics of them anyway, as for the noise, jeez, you should hear her taste in music, it makes MY car sound like the London Philharmonic...:rofl:

We demand pictures!

I've said it before and I'l insist on saying it again. I love the action of the Volvo roof mechanim on the C70

Fair play mate :D:thumbup:

I'll have a gander next time I'm at the Malt. Do like the shape of the Eos, best looking of the tin cabrios IMO :)
