So, have we all got our orders in? Only 140 soft tops you know - chop chop!

PS. How sad - shortest post in history and I STILL have to edit for spelling..........

No harm in one of each! It'll twin nicely with our current old faithfull.

Soft tops are surprisingly good in our climate. My truck cab soft top is warmer than when I had a full station wagon. If they put the whats-it-called section behind the front seats it'll be the best of all worlds.

Whats it going to look like - anything like the US limited edition SV ? THAT was a nice Landie.

Are you talking about Landie soft tops specifically - ie you know them to be leaky, drafty or whatever? I ask since all the drop tops I've had - Porsche, BMW, Audi etc. have, if anything, been more snug in winter/bad weather than hard tops and of course, with the advantage of the chance to drop the top now and then. Personally I think the new Defender soft top will be cool - and great fun. Looking forward to it!

I'm going to guess it'll sound less like sitting in a flexible tin can at 'speed' on motorway too.
