Default Hardtop storage

I can't remember if I told any other hardtop owners about the storage trolley BMW dealers sell for the Z3 hardtop. It stores the hardtop in a vertical position, comes with a cover and retaining straps, and the trolley has lockable castors so that it doesn't run away from you when you're lowering the top onto it.

It's an excellent piece of kit with just two disadvantages, it's pricey (

Check this link out:

Soft-top covers, window protectors and hardtop stands

It is a German company selling stands and covers for hardtops. I thought it may be of interest as they also sell rear window protector "cushions" and replacement covers for when the softop is folded (in black, royal blue, silver grey and dark red...)

I'm going to find out the cost of a stand and cover including shipping to the UK.
