Summary

Average. One of the growing number of "retractable hard-top" convertibles. The Tigra looks good and drives reasonably well but is let down by a cheap-feeling interior.

Styling

Angular styling works well. The Tigra looks good with its roof up or down, and far less girly than rivals like the Ford StreetKa.

Handling

Providing your expectations are kept in check the Tigra wont disappoint with decent amounts of grip and a reactive chassis - its just a shame about chassis flex over bumpy roads.

Comfort

A cramped cabin and a poor seating position limit the baby Vauxhalls appeal for anyone considering longer journeys.

Quality

Well assembled, but the dark, plasticky cabin lacks any sensation of specialness.

Performance

Of the three available engines, only the most expensive 1.8 litre petrol is capable of mustering a decent turn of speed.

Roominess

The cramped cabin does get a few oddments storage areas - but boot capacity is dramatically reduced when you collapse the roof.

Costs

Cheap servicing and insurance plus good fuel economy help the Tigra make a strong financial case for itself.

Value

Well equipped compared to price-point rivals - although aircon is an extra-cost option.

Stereo

Poor sound quality mars the standard stereo system. Only very basic satnav available.

Added Extras

None
