Is your hardtop on yet?
As the Yorkshire weather isn't lending itself to having the roof down much now I'm looking to get my hardtop back on.
How long do folks leave the soft top to dry out before folding away for the hardtop to go on........I was thinking maybe a couple of completely dry days or am I overdoing it? Could I put it on as soon as it's dry yo the touch?
Advice is welcome

You couldn't pay me to put one on, some of the best days for roof down action are in the colder months. The heaters on these things are like furnaces to!

Mine has been on a good few weeks. I needed the shed space for storage due to an extension being built. Luckily i havent missed too many sunny days since its been on and this year its not leaking so thats a result

I can't decide if I want one... I've only had one winter with the zed and had the roof down loads, even on the motorway and at night.
Probably a good thing as there is absolutely no room for it in my house!
