Thats awful............. :censor: - but isn't it an insurance claim???

[GIDDLEPIN]

Damn!!!

You really need to go through insurance Andie, a new soft top can cost about £1500/£2000 plus fitting, which takes literally hours and even professionals find it hard to do.

A cheaper option (if you can call around £8/900 cheap) is to try and source a hard top WITH FITTING KIT.

I feel your pain :(

Let us know how things go

only just got my insurance up to 5 years no claims. i dont want to lose it and my excess is quite high still.

put the hard top on for time being, but kinda wastes the theory of buying a convertible.

so i'm trying to get a few quotes before i decide if i really have to go through the insurance.

That's rubbish Andie.

I hope the police do their job and find out who was responsible!

Dont know whats going on - but just latley there seems to have been a spate of car vandlism going on - on a number of forums.

Its sad - and i feel sorry for you - if the police catch them, you should be allowed "one return stab wound" as compensation!

Spotted this whilst searching for rear calipers!! It's not new.

Assume as this thread's 'gone quiet' - Andie M - you've sorted your roof problem out?

Anyway, for future reference our good friends at MR2roc have already been and done it!
