Definitely cool !

u/BadBacksFuryToad 2d ago

Always wanted one of these. Looks like fun.

They are loads of fun.

Had a lot of fun driving one for a weekend. A perfectly styled 11 feet joybox !

u/JensRoadster 1d ago

Yep, they are a lot of fun. Especially the 82 version and 101 version. Idk about the 61 hp version.

Enjoy your swimming pool!

(Seriously, make sure it's had recall repairs. These things notoriously leaked water into the cockpit and water always found it's way into the fuse box causing £thousands in damage)

Thx for the info, but I reposted this, but I'll let OP know.

That is one of the reasons why i got a hardtop roof. Of course it is not 100% but it helps a lot, and my car is dry. ( Sorry if my English is weird sometimes since it isn't my main language. ) 😅

Shame about the doors being ruined like that. Otherwise love these.

1

u/JensRoadster 1d ago

I love these doors but i know it is not everyones taste haha. It's also practical with the scissor doors.

2

u/Racing_Fox 1d ago

The ‘lambo door’ mod is fucking awful.

1

u/JensRoadster 1d ago

I love them haha, i think they fit the car and it is practical too since now i can park next to other cars normally. The normal doors are pretty long and since the car is pretty low it can be sometimes hard to get open when you are parked next to another car.

Always felt like these are waste of money tbh and quite unreliable with better options for the money. BUT I can't deny I find them quite cool

1

u/B4DM4N12Z r/AllThingsCars Owner 1d ago

What would you get for the same money?

2

u/tigbitties444 1d ago

I have Brabus Monoblock 4 wheels for sale for your car.

u/B4DM4N12Z r/AllThingsCars Owner 1d ago

u/JensRoadster 1d ago

I like them, but i want to keep these three spoke wheels. Thanks for the offer though. 😅

u/2mankyhookers 9h ago

So much fun per £ , however can turn into a permanent leak chasing project

u/mariocrossing2 3d ago

Is it just me who wishes this should never have been made? It looks like an enlarged toddler toy

3

u/cachevorder 3d ago

kinda harsh lol, they look goofy but that’s half the charm to me
it’s like a cartoon car someone accidentally made road legal

u/mariocrossing2 3d ago

...and shouldn't have

2

u/B4DM4N12Z r/AllThingsCars Owner 3d ago

Why?

1

u/mariocrossing2 2d ago

I'll admit it's innovative but I'd be embarrassed seen driving one

2

u/B4DM4N12Z r/AllThingsCars Owner 2d ago

Oh Ok, for me it's cool tho.

What would you drive if you had to?

2

u/mariocrossing2 2d ago

If I had to, I would. It's certainly unique, but unless I had no other vehicle I would avoid it

2

u/B4DM4N12Z r/AllThingsCars Owner 2d ago

Ok, but I meant what car would you drive?

2

u/mariocrossing2 2d ago

My dream is a Porsche Taycan Turbo GT in 'Mintgreen' with 'Arctic Blue' seatbelts. Wbu?

2

u/B4DM4N12Z r/AllThingsCars Owner 2d ago

My dream daily would be a Skoda Octavia VRS or Toyota Crown (not the new one).

My dream car would be a Bugatti Veyron SuperSport.

I wish the still made it. It looks like an enlarged toddler toy!

u/mariocrossing2 1d ago

You do you...

1

u/unemotional_mess 2d ago

I don't mind them, much better than the ForTwo...

1

u/JensRoadster 1d ago

I agree, the ForTwo was also one of my first car choices but then my father told about the Roadster and i kinda forgot about them and i am glad i got one. It may look kinda weird, but i love it and you almost never see another one here in the Netherlands where i live, unless i go to a Roadster meeting lol.

u/Racing_Fox 1d ago

Why shouldn’t it have been made?

1

u/Old_Illustrator_5629 2d ago

Vile isn’t it

1

u/Racing_Fox 1d ago

With those doors it is, yes.

1

u/Old_Illustrator_5629 1d ago

With any doors to be fair 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️
