The Tigra has got a crease in the roof along both sides so it's a lot drier.

I just picked up my late 04 plate (the update was mid 04) and it has little strips (like a bump on each side of the roof that runs where the gutters are on a regular car) but it's part of the roof, I dont think it's a strip on top. I guess this does stop rain dripping in, because after the rain recently with the roof open I haven't gotten soggy!

I looked at an older model the other day and I think this is a new thing.

Just for anyone's information! Oh, and this is in Australia.

did you manage to get pics of these as i just bought an 03 206cc a month ago and as it rains most days in N.Ireland, its really annoying when the water drips in the door seal after its been raining.

Especially when you forget about it and it only drips in when you get to the end of the street and brake :evil:

on either side of the roof you can just make out some plastic strips that channel the water away from side windows, fitted as standard on 05/06 models i think, don't think they sell them for older models tho :(

Can't quite make them out. I wonder if their something you can buy and fit to earlier cars easily. Could do with something like this ready for the winter.

I found a great way of getting rid of standing water on the roof - Roundabouts. Progressively drive around them quicker and quicker about 10 times..........1 clear roof. Just in case common sense doesn't kick in - if the car starts to slide back off the trottle a bit, another alternative is loadsa napkins from a fast food joint in the glove box.
