No, I didn't lob it.
Tried to fit the soft top, which is one of those "it seems to be a good idea after 10 pints" types. The left 'bar' between the windscreen surround and the rollbar seemed to sit a little wobbly but in the right place.
That is, until I put the two roof tensioners in that run between the side bars and laid the roof on top. *Sproing* went the tensioner, the left bar fell out, hit the door on the way down (nice paint chip) and much bad language was used. Looks like the blocks these bars lock into are a little, err, worn. Another look at Eliseparts suggests that there is an improved type available but of course I need the whole set of parts. So that's the next sixty quid gone.
I also found out why the car was so noisy - the rear windscreen gasket is only partially present. Well, some of it was stuck to the hardtop in places it should be, and there's a gap next to my right ear. Grrr. New seal - another 40-odd quid.
So, with the other bits I bought (including an outdoor cover), that'll be around 300 quid for 20 miles' worth of driving so far.
The other amusing bit was the removal of the decat pipe. Every came apart easily but the joints looked like they had the world's supply of exhaust paste smeared all over it. Very funny, given that the proper gaskets are about 3 quid for both...
