Daihatsu Copen 2007

The Daihatsu Copen is the kind of cute little car that could only come from Japan. It was one of the first small convertibles to offer a folding hardtop and has an excellent level of standard equipment inside its compact cabin. The tiny turbo-charged engine has been replaced by a larger unit which gives better economy and a good turn of speed which is magnified by the go-cart like chassis. Unfortunately luggage space is of a minimum in the Copen particularly when the roof is down. It’s been around for quite a while now but still stands as the most smiles for your money of any convertible car. Read more: Daihatsu Copen 2007

Copen’s compact 660cc four-cylinder DOHC 16-valve turbo engine tuned to produce linear torque in direct response to the accelerator produces a handy 47kW@6000rpm with 110Nm of torque @3200rpm. A total weight of just 830kg made possible by aluminium roof, boot and panels helps make its power to weight combination a spritely proposition. The turbocharger, designed exclusively for Copen, uses a new seal design, which raises efficiency. Emissions are below LEV (low emission vehicle) limits which means Copen also points the way environmentally. The drive is by a five-speed transmission. Power Steering, 15" alloy wheels, central locking, power windows, CD player, dual airbags, ventilated front disc brakes, electric aluminium hardtop, sports seats, electric mirrors and engine immobiliser will be standard equipment.Read more: Daihatsu Copen 2007
