I reckon a wind deflector behind the Tamora seats would make the cabin very cosy in cold weather. Has anyone had anything like this fabricated? I've checked a few websites in Sheffield, but they are mainly architectural stuff.

Anyone know of anyone?

I did'nt have much success when trying the Heath Robinson approach.. The Chim has factory roll bar, so I fastened some pipe clips to the outer uprights and rigged a thick piece of carpet across them. Found I had to have it all the way up to neck height before it made a difference. Not sure if it would have been better if it was'nt so wide? Was it because the rear hoop is relatively high even when folded down? Came to the conclusion that just might as well with panel out & rear hoop up. Seemed a good idea at the time....

Was basically sick of everything blowing about in the back of the car, just have a big overcarpet which flods down behind the seats - keeps everything secure. The deflector rig up didnt help with keeping things on the parcel shelf.

I'm not really bothered about securing stuff behind the seats - I want to stop cold drafts blowing around in winter - the heating is only adequate at the best of times, so keeping the cabin air movement to a minimum would help a lot!

You could always buy yourself a nice little SLK to keep you neck warm.
And maybe some gloves and thermal undies.
