Yes they are the wisemann tops. The other type you mention is the original BMW one, which is always going to be the one with a higher value.

You need to speak to Z3I on here, He's normally got one or two for sale. I've dealt with him a couple of times before and he's a top bloke.

Personally, I think hardtops on the cab look awful.

If your soft top is in bad condition, then it's probably cheaper to get it replaced. If you use the car as a daily and are concerned about driving it in the winter, then it should be noted that the soft top is not recommended to be stowed for any lengthy period of time...
