The Daihatsu Copen is a compact and charismatic two-seater convertible that embodies a blend of Japanese ingenuity and European-inspired styling. Renowned for its diminutive dimensions and eye-catching design, the Copen offers a unique driving experience tailored to urban environments and twisty backroads. The car's lightweight design—tipping the scales at around 850kg ensures a spirited and nimble performance. With either a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission, the Copen provides a responsive and engaging ride, making it a joy to pilot in tight corners and city streets alike. The retractable hardtop roof is a standout feature, transforming the Copen from a closed coupe to an open-air roadster in seconds. This dual personality adds practicality and fun, appealing to enthusiasts who desire versatility without sacrificing style. Inside, the cabin is cozy yet well-appointed, featuring leather upholstery, a straightforward dashboard layout, and modern amenities for its time, such as air conditioning and power windows.

This Daihatsu is a small car that ticks a lot of boxes, economical, reliable, well-appointed and with a great roof operation. Finished in grey with red leather trim, we are advised by the vendor that this Copen drives well with no known faults. It is supplied with a V5C registration document and a current MoT test certificate valid until 5th February 2026. With its quirky charm and unique character, the Daihatsu Copen remains a cult classic, loved by enthusiasts seeking a compact, stylish, and affordable convertible. It's a testament to Daihatsu's ability to craft a car that's small in size but big in personality. Consigned by Stewart Banks.
