When the wind is laden wth moisture and the moisture is dumped onto the inside of the screen, dashboard and even the sill between seat and door it is possible to have too much of a good thing...  But you live in England, you should be accustomed to those conditions

I drove my trad today.
Varied the speed to see what effect there was on airflow.
Going faster did not send the slipstream over the top.
Sidescreens were on but no headrest.
On the top of my head and neck i could feel the wind, more so at speed.
The headrest stops some of the wind on my neck but not a great deal.
So.......hat,scarf or collar up seems to be the answer.
If I wanted draught free driving I would use a tintop.....

I have a wind deflector in the garage, it came with the trad. I have the Librands rollbar fitted so the windbreaker fittings were removed. I have not tried hard to refit it as I need to fiddle with the mounting system. A possible project. It did reduce draughts a bit with sidescreens on.
I don't know if it would fit aero cars but will dig out the details of the fitting by a previoys owner. From what I remember it cost >£200 to fit at a dealers.

On my last Aero in the picture the windbreak worked really well and allowed my wife to travel with me in the winter with the roof down without complaints about hair  and could be lifted out for summer drives so as I use my cars all year round I would very much like to get my hands on another. I will give Librands a call and see what they think, Thanks.
