My wife currently drives a Fiat Panda that is on its last legs. I have a Mazda MX5. We are considering going to just one car now as we are both nearing retirement. My wife is a physiotherapist and believes that it will become increasingly difficult for us to get in and out of a low car like the MX5 as we age. (Bang goes my plan to lower the springs then!)
We are looking for something that is relatively small and easily accessible (like the Panda) but which is also fun to drive (like the MX5). The Ford Puma is one model that seems to fit the bill.
So here is my question. My heart says that I should splash out and go the full hog for a ST version. My head (and my wallet) says that a 1.0L version (possibly with 155 bhp) should more than fit the bill. Has anyone here experience of both? Any advice would be appreciated.
