Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

Good Afternoon,
We've been out having loads of fun in the new spyder.
But;
My wife noticed what she thought was a slight hint of an old vomit smell inside the cabin, this was with the roof on.
Anyway after have some open top fun this afternoon, we noticed whilst putting the roof back on, that the smell was from the roof.
Is this normal, or are there cleaners out that that will help reduce the smell, I'm wondering if it's a result of it being stowed damp.
What do you guys use for cleaning and protecting your roof's inside and out?
John

I keep mine in the house under the bed 
but on that rare case I use it the water just runs off with : I1 Smart Fabric AB
Antibacterial
Anti mould and mildew
Highly oil and water repellent
Why use Gtechniq Smart Fabric?
I1 Smart Fabric protects all kinds of fabrics from water and oil based stains. It is breathable and extremely durable thanks to unique Gtechniq 3S Smart Surface Science. With added BioCote® anti microbial technology, treated surfaces will kill 99.9% of bacteria. I1 Smart Fabric makes ordinary fabrics waterproof and easy to clean. Use it to prevent soaking, swelling or rotting on any fabric. From sails, tents and awnings to your car’s soft top and interior. The nano particles of I1 coat each fabric fibre individually, leaving the texture unaffected, allowing the material to breathe. This means stale air will still be able to escape, while repelling water and and oil-based liquids. Being alcohol based ensures a much deeper penetration of the active ingredient giving an I1 treated surface much better durability and overall performance. Typically an I1 treated surface will last 5 times longer than conventional water repellent coatings, with the lifespan of the product on soft tops for as long as 3 years.

OMG 71 miles, thats 6 month of usage
I think the market has slowed for Spyders & GT4 s after the rush to buy for those who never got a new one I think prices will soften for these 2 models over the next few months to tempt people who are looking for circa list .
Older classics still seem to be strong.The 987 Spyders & Cayman R are steady climbers

Could it be an ex press car, looking at the spec?
If so, then it's a great deal for Porsche. Lend the car out to the mags to rag around in and get great reports, then sell it for more than you would have got if sold new (with no miles or free marketing) to a customer!
