Took advantage of nice weather today, took my roof out for the first time. Went for a thirty mile drive round a bit of Herts. I thought the whole experience was pretty good. I have read on previous threads, roofs out equal noise and buffering. It was perfect for the country lanes and at eighty it was still ok, of course noise and wind increase but is fine for a short burst. Probably wouldn't do it on a long motorway journey. It did add a different dimension to the car. As I don't drive it very much with working within walking distance at the moment, it made may realise again what a great drive it is.
Sunroofs seem to have a bad name, I do wish it would open more than that couple of inches but as mine doesn't leak. Now, better weather should be on it's way I'll go semi-topless more.

Nice pictures of a nice car, I wish mine was that clean!!!

Where abouts in Herts as my old stomping ground is Stevenage?
 
Don't honestly know where I've been. I didn't go up as far as that. Basically went up A10, turned off, remember going through a place called Cuffley, went North from there but just drove wherever the nose pointed.
 
Yeah, I know what you mean.

Wind in the hair ( if I had any [:D] ) and enjoying the car. Marvellous feeling.

Well, I've never had a leaky sunroof but I have had a headache after trying to drive from Huddersfield to Exeter with the panel in the boot.

I'm not joining in your DDSR group then, but I do have specialist requrements I guess: the roof is too heavy.

In any case one of my cars has enough sunroof for both of them [:D]
 
Might have...

It's OK now I've cleaned the road grime from the inside of the door trims [8D]
