Cobra replica weather protection

[Randy Winkman]

Anyone have views on what to look for in this respect when buying a Cobra replica? I guess that it mostly depends on what I expect to do with the car. But any views on how well hard-tops, soft-tops and tonneaus tend to work and how much they contribute to the experience? Cheers.

Thanks both. I take the point about it being a good weather car but my thinking is that some weather protection at least gives a plan B.

I used to get wet below about 50 if it rained but then I didn’t have any side windows ! Not much fun if a lorry overtakes you on the motorway ....

To be honest it was a rare event if I went out in the wet with a big yank V8 it was extremely easy to lose traction even when treating the throttle like driving on egg shells.

Used the tonneau frequently if leaving the car unattended.

Cheers. I'll just have to drive very fast in straight lines if it rains.
