Hi,

I've recently bought an S2000 GT. The Hartop part of it is a nice option, but I'm now left with the problem of storing it when it rises above 10

 

Some leave them in the garden with the cover on.

Not got anyone that would let you store it? Work?

This is the reason why I didnt bother with a GT. I just couldnt see any benefits to it for me, when considering the storage issues.

 

If you have the space you could always build yourself a stand from PVC piping like I did. Mine sits outside behind the shed, with a waterproof covering over it.

Just make sure you buy all the bits from one shop as I found that different traders fittings don't always match up in size. Don't forget to put a nice soft layer of fabric over the HT first, then something waterproof. I've since replaced my waterproof cover with one that didn't have large holes in the side

 

How about something like this (if you have a bit of garden or patio)?

Or rent a garage and make one of these:

 

I leave mine in my shed.

Oh, if you are selling your hardtop when the weather starts to get nice, and buying another when the weather starts getting crappy - you are unlikely to make a profit

 

You can get a bag to hang on the wall too.

 

Here you go -

I've got mine on the garage wall - sorted

I have a hard top stand (OEM) here if anyone wants to make an offer. And arrange collection!

 

Here's my solution. I got it from B&Q for about 1500 quid. It takes a while to put together, but it does the job :-)
