Just to set the scene.....

Yes, but isn't it all worthwhile when you have the top down on a sunny day........... :D

Good luck next week - hope they can sort it all out.

if i had that many small problems i would park the car in the show room window, is the build really that bad on cabs

Ask Geoff (Whitebug), he works at the dealers ! *I don`t think he`d be too chuffed if you drove through the showroom window either as he works in there as a salesman ;D

We`ve had no major problems with ours - the trim around the rear window kept coming adrift but that was fixed with some updated clips, some leds in the centre brake light went and that took 2 visits to fix as they had to confirm the fault the first time *::) ,the doors don`t sound terribly solid when you close them but apparently that`s normal and sometimes the roof doesn`t fold down properly, but always works when it`s anywhere near the dealers * :-[

I think some of the roof and window problems seem to have been corrected for the new shape.

I had problems with mine when I first bought it, but none of them "cab-specific" - clutch, paint, mirrors etc.

And of course you can't beat them on a sunny day :D
