Hi all.

Does anyone have any experience of having driven/owned a Honda CRX Del Sol?

What are they like?????

It's like a 2 seater version of a hatchback of the period (e.g. Civic). Nice Honda engine and gearchange. There are two roof versions, manual and electric. If the electric goes wrong it costs a bomb to repair.

The handling and driving experience are completely unlike a Cappo - it doesn't have that instant reponse to pedal and wheel. Pleasant enough, but not a real sports car. You'd find it more responsive than your X-90, and a more comfortable ride, but I doubt it has more useful space than a Cappo.

Mmmmm. Thanks Ian. I was thinking of one as a 'second' car...

Well, I'd say that, apart from the convenience (and risk!) of the electric roof, the Cappo would be a better choice, but that's just me :wink:

Something to cogitate over:
