I've had the roof down both into an out of work today. Even if it starts to rain you can just pull over and get the roof up in a few seconds. I realised that the light rain just goes over the cabin anyway, its only the torrential stuff thats bad.
The hardtop definately won't be going on until October / November.

There's still the odd day in winter when theres an opportunity of a roof down crispy mornings drive, shame to miss it

Don't worry, I won't actually be putting the hard top back on.
Managed a couple of times with the roof down today - feared for the windscreen in a hailstorm on the way home though. Luckily roof up already as the clouds I was heading for looked like the end of the world.

I've now put my roof on - as a stand against the bad weather!
However, it does rattle a bit, not a lot, but enough to be noticeable...
Is this normal or is there some trick ie padding it out somewhere?
cheers

Someones got a new 07 down the road few weeks ago and they have still got their hard top on since new! Don't know when they will be taking it off!
I only had a quick moment with the roof off in the last 3 weeks, so annoying!!!

The weather being what it is, I'm thinking of having a sun roof fitted to my hard-top.

Looked at the charts today and they certainly suggest that the weather is very likely to improve early next week with 2/3 highs moving in from the west. The bad news is that before then we should see a few really windy days.
That was the Boaby weather.
