Drive around for 1/2 hour until roof is dry?

I think it is always going to happen with a gutterless roof and a frameless window.

agree ......

you can't expect the water not to drip in if there is nothing to direct it elsewhere.

If it's just you in the car then park halfway up a pavement - then the water runs harmlessly down the passenger window! ;) :D

Yes, i'll try when possible.
Because there are very, very, very few places here in Then Netherlands where you are alowed to put your car (halfway) on the pavement. I can't come up with a place where i'm going and am able to park that way. Either a parking space there or a parking ban. And just to pay 45-60EUR for a dry seat hmm :?
Damn the government!
(maybe i'll call that nice mr. Bush: help there are tyrans here also! :x )

Same in Britain. Doesn't stop people doing it though.

Do you have an 04 plate CC? If so, could you please take a close up pic of this strip? I might try to get it under warranty or just buy the strips and replace them.

Thanks

I ain't see no CC's with a strip on the roof.....Its just a design flaw on peugeot's behalf.....Does anyone know if the SLK or Tigra suffers the same wetness problem?
