I’m looking for some suggestions to try and replace my 2 cars with 1.
Main driver is an E61 530 M, bought as both my kids played Ice Hockey, due to injury only one now plays, so I don’t need as big a car. Other car is a 911 996 convertible, I’ve had convertibles as second cars for over 15 years. Last MOT registered I had done 250 miles in the year, since then I have been desperately trying to find reasons to use it.
Any recommendations on a decent 4 seat convertible that has a bit of poke? Budget...i’d Like to think £30 - £35k.

Maserati Gran Cabrio. But prices from about £40k used.
Merc E53 AMG convertible. Used E500 convertibles and E400 convertible start from £20k ish.

Leftfield Suggestion:

CL500/63 Once you drop the windows, pop the roof open it's as airy as a convertible & a very nice place to be to boot:
