Monsoon replacement soft top
The plastic rear screen on my car finally gave way a couple of months ago and I took the plunge and made the 4 hour drive to monsoon for a new one.
It's been on a month now and it's still utterly fantastic. The attention to detail on the new hood is fantastic. Reinforced at all the usual wear points, neat, beautifully stitched, just wonderful.
I worked from their wifi equipped waiting room for the day and it was a great experience. Long live British manufacturing.
The fitter took great care of my less than perfect bodywork and treated the car as if it were brand new.
With the cost of fuel and a hotel the night before, it put the cost and inconvenience factor much higher than having it done locally but it was well worth every penny.
Anyone thinking of saving a few quid and getting a cheaper product should seriously consider monsoon. It may cost more but the reasons for that are very obvious the minute you see the finished product.
To say that I am still overjoyed one month on would be an understatement.

Just to say.. anyone going to monsoon and staying over.. if you let me know I might be able to arrange a tour of my work place if you are interested. My work is about 15 mins away.
Nice to hear they are good, thanks Gary!

Just to echo GaryB comments, had mine fitted about a month now as well and the hospitality of Monsoon is second to none.
The roof is excellent and has really lifted the overall look of my car, got some Aerospace 303 on it pronto and it is keeping it good as new. Gary put it so well, I have nothing to add other than if you are looking for a new hood, get it done at Monsoon, they really are that good.

lovegroova, are you the sites new search function? 
As far as I can see, rather than using the search function, people just post and then you post up the most relevant response from the existing search tool.
Now that's what I call value add from the moderator community...
