  1. If you think inside a bay is noisy, trust me it's nothing compared to this!
     
  2. Come on then - give us the details

    I'd always had one of these on my list until I got to drive one at work. Slow, noisey and kept bashing my elbow on the window frame. I still love them though.
     
  9. Ha ha yes, definitely slow and definitely noisy! I nearly died in it today queuing to get into a car show in this heat, one and a half hours melting to be exact! Ive not had it long but th more I drive it, the more I like it.

    I only got to drive 4 miles. I guess you do get used to driving whatever. It's the same with the bay.
     
  11. I'd strongly recommend cavity waxing it
    Especially the chassis

  13. I know what you're saying! Apparently chassis is good, looks good but who can tell :confused:
     
  14. Closer looking it's got lashing points for a canvas and hinged window blocks. So Originally a soft top. Would look good with a tilt and sticks.

  15. I think it comes with these as standard so you can have it either way. Canvas does look good but a bit prices to get the whole kit. Would be nice with it rolled up in the summer.
