at 96p i think i can splash out on a new one

( if need be )

Have you worked out where your leaks are? I have loads of rubber roof bits that i am sure will sort your problem out. You just need to tell me which bit is leaking, cant have you having a cover on the cab all the time can we??

hiya pete - i THINK its coming in here :

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

car cover is showing sign of wear and tear - and rips have appeared ( where the rope is rubbing )

so off to tescos for another one

Not bad though - less than a Â£1 for 6/7 months of a dry car

LOL, This brings back memory\'s.

How do matey, I\'m surprised you have a wind problem with what i keep hearing about you

I bought the Blue hood cover from Halfrauds then pulled the elastic hooks tight so it stayed in place then trapped the Cover with the doors (tops of the windows).

O yeh and i went through a stage of rigging up drip trays

I found the biggest issue was to stop the floor falling out but at least i did\'nt have any Ecu problems at that point.

Hiya buddy !!

how tricks ??

went to tescos and they didnt have any

- and then came home and the cover is ripped well and truely at the back ( which is ok as it only leaks in at the side )

although with the rain at RS - it was dry inside - i think the problems lie with leaving it 3 months in the rain over winter

From my observations, the rubbers do swell when they get wet, so they will provide a better seal. Keeping the rain off with a cover may be making the problem worse for when you do drive it and get caught in a shower. :Giggle

Let me see what rubber seals I have Stu in that problem area of yours and see if they help any. PM me your address please.

actaully dave - in the rain its fine ( prob cause you are moving )

like i said - the prob arose over winter when it didnt move for 3 months or so !

Pete - will drop you a PM tomorrow - off to bed now

Got a idea Stu,

Hire a skip. empty all that junk out of your garage, and put the vert in there.
