At least they are honest when they say it isn't going to be exactly the same as a mass produced car because they don't have the facilities. All these brands attract a certain 'type' of customers and those that don't fit the profile invariably get annoyed and go elsewhere. That is true of most things though, not just cars.


I'm not going to deviate, but if I'm the 'type' ie someone who is prepared to sped +£70K on a soft top who expects it to be water tight read on!

Now I'm not asking MMC to discover/invent perpetual motion, just do what most other (Ferrari and BMW accrding to posts excepted pls post more ) have done and create a hood that is water tight.

To be controversial the answer from R&D appears to be the M3W ,no hood so it can't leak or the Aero Coupe, same answer.
