Difference in Wind buffering?

[ochten]

Noticed that my 2001 Standard Tuscan has a severe wind buffering nearby the B post. From 80miles and higher. (Roof off, windows up rear window in place) Later Tuscans from 2003 noticable much better. If you drop your speed till 65 of is gone.. Roof in place no difference with later models.

Different aero?

I've had the same on both of my Mk 1s, so if later ones don't do it they yes, I assume they must have changed something! Dropping the side windows slightly makes it go away (with top off and back window in).

I'd be interested in this myself. When you say buffering / buffeting, do you just mean the amount of 'wind' inside the cabin?

I generally leave the rear window in for lower speeds.

Above 50mph I find having the rear window out makes a big difference.

Yes, windbuffering nearby the B post. These is a big difference with my 2003 Tuscan. Even with the windows somewhat down the buffering is severe. The aero is different with the later models? Till 80 mph no problem above nasty!

Not sure. But 175 with the roof off is fine in my Mk1 S.
