Who needs a shower cape?

[TIPPER]

I'm probably not the first but I've recently discovered a quick roof fix for the S1 that eliminates the need for a shower cape. Just clip the leading edge of the soft-top in place as usual then roll the top back and drop the rear spigots into their holes in the clam and push forwards (but don't tighten). Leave the flaps that normally clip round the cant rails dropped over the side-windows. Done it several times now including leaving the car on a very windy night. Works a treat.

That fix was sugested to me when I was looking at getting a shower cape but I was a little concerned about the damage the metal fixings might cause if they came loose in a good blow.
I was after wind proof as well as rain proof so went with the cape.

And what a fantastic shower cape you have. Got it for a bargain price too I hear?

Yep, works a treat and has been fully tested against the downwash from 14.6 tons of whirling thrashing fury. As you suggested, it also looks good with the black wheels.
