Europa s everyday car?

[Denno B]

I currently drive a vx220 turbo as a weekend toy and a clio 172 as an everyday car but recently the vx feels like a waste with it not being used enough. If i parted with both cars would a Europa be any good as an everyday drive or is it too similar to the vx's/elises? A good heater is a must in the winter and windscreens that demist quickly which the vx just doesn't! Have considered a Z4m roadster as an alternative but do really like the look of the Europa if it's practicle enough. Any thoughts would be apreciated.

Europa has a roof, a bigger boot, slightly easier to get in/out and better interior, otherwise not too different from the VX.

Does the heater work?!

I use mine every day. Heater not bad and heats the car up quickly. I must admimt I am tempted to put heated seats on for winter, but only cause last car had them.

Heater is way better than the VX,they moved the battery so a proper heater box could be fitted! That said the system is not brilliant as you always need the fan on to get any airflow. Remember there are no heated mirrors or hrw so frost is a pain!
The Europa still crashes a bit over bumps like the VX but i think its quite a bit more civilised....And better looking..Also has the same build quality...3 years old and every nut and bolt is corroding up solid!!
