The hand brake control is well out of the way under the facia. The throttle pedal could be more comfortable. There is excellent synchromesh and, if required, quick movements can be made on the upward changes. Rather more than average range of travel of the steering column gear lever is involved between first and second and third and top and gear control could be more definite with advantage. A positive stop prevents unintentional engagement of reverse.
First gear is decidedly noisy.
Passenger space in the rear compartment is fair, fully upholstered seating being provided, as against the occasional rear seating of the convertible. The whole of the upholstery is in first-quality leather. Leg room at the rear is limited, as also is headroom by the curvature of the roof. The drop windows in the doors are both controlled by quick-action levers. The driving mirror view is not comprehensive.
