It's great up to about 40mph with the screen folded down (and wearing wrap-around sunglasses) but you really need the screen up if yer goin any faster.

They're me old doors, which are a bit rotten, so I took a hacksaw to em and pop-rivetted some ally on the top.
I've got a new pair of doors ready to fit at the end of the summer, together with the hard top.
I've took out the glass and regulators if anybody wants em.

I found that when I folded down my windscreen, at about 35 mph I lost all my tax discs as they were blown out the holder. Of course i picked up the old ones straight away but took ten minutes to find the current one whick had found its way down a drain grate but by luck a spider web had kept it in reach! Need to find a better tax disc holer I think....

When I folded mine down we had to stop after half a mile cos we couldn't breathe. So we folded the screen back up again, realised we'd lost the tax disc, went back to look for it then realised it was at the top of the screen not the bottom and had bin there all along!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nooooo 1/2 a mile down the road. The draught was too much for normal breathing. Got up to about 50.

I was stuggling to breath once after half a mile but then I was pushing a landrover that was suffering a "starting malfunction".
I know what your on about though, even with the screen up I need a hat to keep my hair out my eyes not to mention my girlfriends long locks flailing about like a windmill.

Even a mundane trip to the dump is fun when you do it topless!
In a 10 mile round trip, I got waved at a dozen times - including a Rangie driver and two very attractive young lady pedestrians.
I PMSL when a copper nearly drove into a parked car cause he were staring at me.

It's the top of the windscreen frame that contacts the bonnet, not the glass. I stuck a bit of draught excluder to the top of the windscreen frame to protect the bonnett paintwork. That's all you need.
