Just got a 51 206 cc in Caymen Green. Nice looking motor. Already comming across the little probs such as leak on passenger side, maybe the window seal, as you can hear wind blowing through when driving!. Also the little noisey creaks! The main prob I have is the CD/Radion make faint noise and nothing comming out of the spaekers!!!!! But hey it looks good with all its extras!!!!!!! Roll on the sunshine!

Welcome to the forum. WD40 repels water so you should deal with your leak ok. Lubricate the window channels with silicon grease. that might help as well. I think all 206cc roofs creak, there is bound to be some movement as you drive along. Hope you sort out the sound system. I assume you've adjusted the output settings.
Roll on sunshine? Hear, hear!

WD40 ! I was joking regarding WD40 to cure your leak. Obviously you were not in tune with my sense of humour, regarding your Username.
I would try silicon grease on your roof seals (you can buy a container of clear silicon grease from most plumbers' merchants). Don't use WD40 on them.
Yes, from Kibworth in good old Leics.
