Looking for a Gransport Spider

[dem maser]

so rare means they hold their value, same as MCVs......

go for a standard spyder and save yourself thousands....till one comes up.......

Thanks but I am not in a rush so will wait for the right one at my price point.

Agree, buy a standard car and spend some money on upgrades and it will be a better car than a GS Spyder and cheaper.

Exactly andy.....

or just buy a Gransport coupe but if your prepared to wait for the right car then i do hope the right vehicle comes along soon for you.

If someone really wants a GS Spyder then the Coupe will not do...Its all about open air motoring.....But seriously I would think about a normal Spyder and look at making it the best car it can be.....

Anyone here owned or driven the Spyder GS? I'd be interested in how different the are to drive and how less practical they are compared to the GS.
Is there much scuttle shake, what's the ride like?
Does the handling suffer?
Is it a lot noiser at speed with the roof up?
How much buffeting or wind is there at say 60 to 80 with roof down?
Is there any room to put stuff behind the seats with the roof up?
Boot is the same size I think.

I really miss having a convertible and don't need the back seats much anymore so could be ideal. dream dream....

I have been in a 4200 Spyder, that made all sorts of squeaks and noises. Cant comment on roof down experience.

I think for the ultimate driver...it would have to be a GS coupe.......for open air.......the GS Spyder looks better.....but won't be that much more driveable than the standard Spyder

They are known for scuttle shake but when I went in Spydernicks I couldn't notice any........The GS Spyder had pretty good reviews in EVO when it came out...Said it was not as good as the Coupe but was more for cruising and listening to the noise with the roof down...
