Hi

Im looking into an E30 cab and am also looking at hardtops.

How much do these cost and who are the best to contact?

Whats the quality like with each company or what ever?? :D

I take it that they come in rough mouldings which you get smoothed and sprayed???

alot of people buy privatley they range in price in the uk and are even cheaper in germany.

ive seen them price from Ԛ£500 to Ԛ£900 for an original vinyl covered hardtop depending on condition. Then you can pay to have the vinyl removed and sprayed. Ive seen companys offer to source and do all the work for about Ԛ£1200.

In Germany you an pick them up for Ԛ£300+ but you have to go get them.

Mate,

Sheldo 100% correct.

I have two, totally pestured the owners to buy the Hardtops from them.

Ԛ£750.00 for the Black Ԛ£1000.00 for the blue.

Both bought from Motorsport owners.

Cheers Gareth.

Germany is a consideration if you are going over there in the summer to watch the football.

Drive over in your new cab and watch the said futty and buy a Helmet from Germans.!!

as said wait for em to come privately, try on ebay sometimes they pop up on a rare-ish occasion. Expect to pay around Ԛ£700-800 mark for them. Good thing about them you can usually sell em on for around the same mark once you sell the car.
