For The Eos is good to drive, has plenty of rear-seat space, a classy image and superb build quality. It goes from coupe to cabrio in a jiffy and has a sliding sunroof incorporated into the roof.
Against Prices are steep compared with some rivals', but that's about it.
What Car? says
Smart-looking, great-driving cabrio with top-drawer refinement and build. Expensive, but well worth it.

Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
Folding steel-roofed cabriolets are no longer a new idea and Volkswagen certainly wasn’t one of the first to introduce it, but the Golf-based Eos is one of the best, featuring an electric sunroof built into its retractable roof.
While VW has got it right, it certainly doesn’t sell its wares cheap. Even the entry-level 1.4-litre costs around twenty grand, which is a lot more than rivals charge.
There’s another figure to look at, however – what the car will be worth in three years' time – and here the Eos betters most rivals.
There are four trim levels on offer and safety is excellent across the range. Even the entry-level S version is reasonably well equipped with all-round electric windows, alloy wheels, air-conditioning and an MP3-compatible CD player as standard.
Sat-nav is not standard on any versions, but it will help when you come to sell the car on.
