I’ve been delaying getting a new roof as the Vinyl patch was holding and then the fuel fiasco. However, the patch has given up.
I started mailing/ calling a number of suppliers/ fitters and I’ve been surprised that they don’t seem that interested in coming to fit. Can someone recommend who is best to buy a mohair roof from for a Mk2. I am still torn as to whether I should get a red or blue hood on a silver car, or if it will make it stand out too much to local vandals.
I’m in Berkshire,and desperate for a roof. Recommendations please?
Another vote for jack smiths! Sent me a mohair roof to fit myself. Really good quality hood and some rather comedy, but very useful fitting instructions.
Awesomeimports.com nr Bristol, 01179821267. member from Western said that they will collect car from Cribbs Causeway Mall while you shop and return it later.
Dandycars for ultimate fit and quality and a price to go with it or Jack Smith Trimmers for unbeatable prices but bespoke made for you (including not guaranteed symmetrical rear window installation, quite often)
Heads or tails?
Or as mentioned above, perhaps something inbetween at Awesomeimports in Bristol? Straight away you will save £6 for the bridge and another £30 in petrol compared to a trip to Swansea…
Went to Dandycars today. New black mohair roof. Well I tell you what, their service is fantastic! From phoning (I called Thursday lunch and saw me Friday morning!) to fitting, to dealing with the payment. All as said, what top lads. Roof looks amazing, really lifts the car. Only bummer is I can’t lower it for a week.
Thanks for all your tips. £475 fitted, well happy!
