New Sports/convertibles

66 New Sports/convertibles reviews available

  • Mercedes-Benz SL (2001-2012)

    Mercedes SL 1

    New price: £63,190 - £160,295

    The SL is the big sports model in the Mercedes range, with hallowed heritage. Competition is stiff for the latest SL, which was facelifted in 2008.
  • Mercedes-Benz SL (2012-)

    Merc-SL-2012-1

    New price: £69,675 - £167,625

    Mercedes SL review: Which? lab test results for the Mercedes-Benz SL sports car, launched in 2012.
  • Mercedes-Benz SLK (2004-2011)

    Mercedes SLK 3

    New price: £31,285 - £54,368

    Second generation of the SLK roadster - the car that made the folding hard-top roof a must. Can Merc rival the Audi TT and Porsche Boxster on the road?
  • Mercedes-Benz SLK (2011-)

    Mercedes SLK 2011 1

    New price: £29,990 - £55,075

    Is the latest version of Mercedes' popular SLK roadster the best yet - and does it match up to the BMW Z4 and Porsche Boxster?
  • Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

    Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

    New price: £164,370 - £176,325

    Which? Car tests the successor to the legendary 1950s SL 300
  • Mini Convertible (2009-)

    Mini Convertible 1

    New price: £14,995 - £28,735

    The latest version of the Mini Convertible. The Mini hatchback provides a great base for this soft-top, which is stylish and fun, but offers little practicality.
  • Mini Coupe (2011-)

    Mini Coupe1

    New price: £16,760 - £27,320

    Mini's first strict two-seater is the raffishly stylish Coupe. Can the Mini Coupe make as much impact in the sports car arena as it has in the hatchback market?
  • Mini Roadster (2012-)

    Mini Roadster 1

    New price: £18,050 - £28,420

    Which? tests the Mini Roadster two-seat sports car
  • Nissan 370Z (2009-)

    Nissan 370Z 1

    New price: £29,565 - £37,965

    Nissan's 370Z coupe and convertible are old-school sports cars - something like an updated MGB for the 21st century.
  • Nissan GT-R (2009-)

    nissan gt-r5

    New price: £60,705 - £83,855

    The much-lauded GT-R is Nissan showing off its engineering abilities. But is it really a rival to a Porsche 911, or even more exotic supercars?
  • Peugeot 207 CC (2007-)

    Peugeot 207 CC 5

    New price: £16,640 - £20,415

    The 'coupe-cabriolet' convertible version of Peugeot's 207 supermini, with room for two adults. Not really a sports car, but a popular slice of fun all the same.
  • Peugeot 308 CC (2009-)

    Peugeot308cc

    New price: £20,990 - £27,795

    The 308 CC is a coupe-cabriolet convertible version of the popular 308. As with all of Peugeot's CC models, the folding metal roof really appeals to UK drivers.

Used Sports/convertibles

77 Used Sports/convertibles reviews available

  • Alfa Romeo Brera (2006-2010)

    Alfa Romeo Brera

    Used price: From £9,425

    Alfa Romeo do exotic and dramatic very well - witness the Brera two-door coupe sports car. But only the Which? Car road test tells the whole story.
  • Alfa Romeo GT (2004-2010)

    Alfa Romeo GT

    Used price: From £5,995

    Not as powerful as the Brera but with a bit more space round the back, Alfa Romeo's 2004 GT looks like a classic sports car. We put it to the test.
  • Alfa Romeo Spider (2006-2010)

    Alfa Romeo Spider1

    Used price: From £12,150

    Alfa Romeo's Spider sports car screams 'old school' fun. Hardly surprising for a two-door convertible from the Italian marque.
  • Audi A3 Cabriolet (2008-)

    Audi A3 Cabrio

    Used price: From £13,550

    We test the soft-top version of Audi's premium hatchback.
  • Audi A4 Cabriolet (2002-2008)

    audi a4 cabriolet

    Used price: From £6,125

    Audi's fashionable four-seat A4 convertible, made from 2002-2008.
  • Audi A5 Cabriolet (2009-)

    Audi A5 Cabrio 2012 1

    Used price: From £20,000

    We test the soft-top version of the stylish A5.
  • Audi A5 Coupe (2007-)

    Audi A5 Coupe 2012 1

    Used price: From £14,950

    The A5 coupé and convertible don't major on practicality (the five-door Sportback does that), but they reflect Audi's coupé heritage.
  • Audi R8 (2007-)

    Audi R81

    Used price: From £50,750

    Fast, expensive and impractical. Read on to find out what you didn't know about the Audi R8 sports car range. Built from 2008 onwards.
  • Audi RS3 (2011-)

    1. Audi RS3 Red ftq trees 1024 x 786

    Used price: From £36,500

    Sporty and practical, but expensive to own: we test the Audi RS3 hatchback.
  • Audi RS5 Coupe

    Audi RS5 1

    Used price: From £50,250

    We test the Audi RS5 Coupe - it's stunningly fast and looks the part, but is it worth the high price?
  • Audi TT (1999-2006)

    Audi TT coupe red static f3q

    Used price: From £4,875

    Audi's original Mk1 TT sports car represents the pinnacle of Audi's design flair - it still looks stunning more than a decade after its launch.
  • Audi TT (2006-)

    Audi TT Mk21

    Used price: From £14,295

    The second-generation Audi TT arguably looks better than the iconic original. The Which? road testers find out if it's better to drive, too.
