I sometimes trawl a U.K. MGF BBS (just to feel superior you understand) and there has been talk of condensation on the inside of the rear screen.
As I have not gone through a winter yet with my beloved Stook, I was wondering, does this effect our cars and if so, has anybody got any tips how best to live with it.

And please don't say buy a hardtop, I have just spent a packet on decorating the kitchen etc and am dead skint

i've never had any condensation on my stook through the winter.
not sure what people have told you but mine was condensation free.

 

Maybe MGF's are more prone to it as they are mid engined

 

I've certainly had condensation on the soft top window of my MY2001

Still, cleared easily...

I would guess that the condensation in the MGF is caused by all the water that gets in through the roof during the rest of the year.

 

We have a button marked A/C that solves the problem.

MG have an AA recovery phone number

 

What about when the temp is less than 5C the A/C doesn't work......

How do we clear frost from the roof..... Oh we've already got a thread on that

 

Yep, Cedric gave a tip-off on this a while back, turn on the air con and blast up the fan - it's worked for me when I've had to leave the car parked outside in the wet.

If the outside temp is less than 5 degrees I don't get out of bed!
