Hi David,
As a owner of newer and older convertables, I would hope engineers and designers
have learned something throughout the years. My 74 B is a whole lot easier to
put up then say the Bug-I. The TD takes two people and a half to put up,
problem
where does the other half person sit in the car? As far as I'm concerned the
new
MGF should be able to put the top up from inside the cockpit and with two
fingers. Then again what fun would that be. I'm not complaining, that's the
joy
of having an old car.
