When shopping for a used roadster, most buyers like to play it safe. They'll look at a Mazda MX-5, an MG TF or possibly a Fiat Barchetta if they're feeling a bit adventurous. The trouble is, there's a whole lot more fun to be had if you could just broaden your view a little. Those who do a lot of city driving will often find these cars straining at the leash a bit in town, often resembling energetic dogs that just want a bit of space. Better to choose something that can take the cut and thrust of city traffic in its stride and offer the added security of a hard-topped roof. That's where Daihatsu's Copen comes in. You may never have heard of it and if that's the case, you're forgiven. It's not been a sales hit in the UK and as a result, used buyers can snap up some low mileage bargains.

About the Daihatsu Copen

If you're prepared to think outside the box a little, a used Daihatsu Copen could be a smart solution. It's got just enough about it to satisfy those who enjoy driving but won't punish you during the sort of city trips that many of us have to put up with. As long as you don't take yourself too seriously, the Copen offers a fun, vaguely exotic, alternative to more prosaic roadster offerings.
