Does any thusiast remember or know of a Tonneau cover for Z3s.
I have seen 1/4 tonneaus for over the folded hood both original BMW and aftermarket, but not a full tonneau. My old Healey 100 has one, as do a lot of older sports cars. The cover protects the cabin from the elements when parked (no need to put the hood up for a short stay). It can also have a zip up the centre when only the driver is in the car keeping the rest covered while driving. Would save a lot of wear and tear on upholtsery. Fittings to hold it in place could be a problem, Zds dont really suit tennax fastners down the sides. Any brain waves??

Hi Kruisn,
Tonneau covers would be very useful, and to-day could be made out of modern materials so as to be compact, my one gripe is that the hood cover (which is wrongly referred to by some as a tonneau cover) takes up so much boot space, I am sure there have been links on here recently showing Tonneau covers, By knowing what tonneau covers are you are giving a clue to your age.

Roof ? Roof ? what is this roof you speak of? Surely this is only some sort of tent you erect when you are ferrying royalty about. Otherwise it should be stowed away in the back with a hard, thick, black rubber cover fixed over it. When it rains you just drive faster so it goes over the top of the screen. Heh,Heh,Heh!!!

As Alex mentioned, fixing the cover on for driving could be the problem. I agree with your comments about the "hood cover" and the waste of space. I never use it for that reason. I will have a look around the net and see if I can come up with anything further (no luck so far).
Yep !!! with our Zders Campbells Bay.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

kruisn,
Only problem keeping the roof down all the time is that the screen gets knackered, unless of course you unzip it and leave it at home.
The previous owner of my ///M left the hood down all the time, as a result the hood could do with being replaced and the rear screen has a cloudy thick line through the middle of it.
