MY08 V8 Vantage Roadster - Wind deflector

[nw28840]

Hi,

Anyone have a Wind deflector in their V8 Vantage Roadster ?

I had one in both an E46 Cab and a 911 C4S Cab. It really made a difference.

Also , Will it fit in the boot OK when not in use ? Or are you just able to 'fold it down' so it can
stay in place when the roof is up ?

Cheers,
Nick

I have one and it stores in a bag which clips onto the rear bulkhead in the boot.
Not used it really as i bought the car in autumn but will try it out as it gets warmer.
When ive had the roof down the buffeting is not bad so i may not use it after all.

Yes I have one and it does make a difference over 65-70.

Thanks both.

I'll keep my eye out for one i think.

Cheers,

I only put mine in when heading out onto the motorways because I prefer the look of the car without + better rear visibility. However it makes a huge difference and turns 30mph 'light wind' to 'no wind' and makes it pleasant up to much higher speeds.

I have one, and keep it in place permanently. Rear view though it with the top up is fine. Isn't the best of wind deflectrs, but just about worth buying.

That's my old one
I've had 7 roadsters now and never bothered
I like the "full" effect

Maybe you should consider a windscreen delete? Renault Spyder style.
