What 2+2 sporty cars can you think of?

I'm sure there used to be more 2+2s than that.

[edit]
For those unsure of the term : The idea behind a 2+2 is to take a sports car or coupe and squeeze in 2 rear seats or make it just that little bit bigger to fit in 2 rear seats. It gives that little extra practicality so that you can give 2 extra people a lift if they really need it. So not a 4 seater as not comfortable enough to be as roomy as a proper saloon etc. A compromise between sportyness of 2 seater sports car with some of the practicality of something bigger

Thought I'd raise the topic as I'm sure a few years ago there were loads but now I cant think of any.

It's a term generally applied to coupes with small rear seats, Elvin.

What about the 911?

No rear seats in the S2000, or in the new ewww nasty car I think (although I haven't looked closely!). I think you need to read the rules of this game again Elvin!

The mightiest of them all..............

The VW Scirocco.



(both the MK1 & MK2, and to a certain extent the Corrado too.)

I love 'Roccos, one of the best fun cars i have ever driven - only let down by their lack of brakes! I've owned a total of 4 of them, the one pictured was the last one i ever owned, replaced by the Puma.
See that Steve McQueen? That's me that is.....
