Some do, some don't. I think if you're prepared to adjust stuff, then you can stop it mostly. S2s are a bit more water tight than S1s I think

Mine has a mind of its own - leaks some of the time. Tried various things to fix it. Now I leave an old towel on the passenger sill (leak at the top front passenger side is probably the most common). The 111r has a different seal.

Hi,

When washing my 111R with "normal" water (no pressure) I sometimes have a few (2-3 drops) on the sill from the posterior corner of the window.
However under heavy rain, it seems waterproof.

Why do you ask, BTW?

[I HATE GATSO]

Looking at both vx and elise so just getting info on them both. Was originally thinking 350z but 21mpg average and 6-7k more.

[bogie]

nope they dont...and why worry about fuel economy?....unless you do 30K miles a year and are comparing say a Range Rover V8 with a Fiesta diesel then its the least of the running costs to consider

The "hill" video is Zig zag hill in dorset near Sherborne. The BoLOCs go there regularly in the summer. It was a bit of a slow attack because they were not expecting me to be standing by the road. It is a series of 5 haipins on a steep hill where you are lucky to see 2nd gear.

In answer to your original question, the roof (In my experience) only leaks when you are silly enough to point a pressure washer at the seals.
