Beagler Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 On a Morgan I had there were sun blinds that you could swivel up to deflect the wind when the hood was down. Do Caterham owners fit the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR400D Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Might I suggest a Venetian blind covering the whole of the screen? It would solve your issue when driving and will keep the cabin cool when parked..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadership Team Toughie Posted August 5, 2021 Leadership Team Share Posted August 5, 2021 The reason I asked about side screens is that with them on, I've never had a problem with needing an 'over the top' wind deflector on the windscreen. Most of the buffeting comes from the sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 I'm long in body and short in leg at 6ft. Had buffeting in the Morgan. The Caterham has lowered footwell so I presume seat is a little lower. Will find out when car arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team Toughie Posted August 6, 2021 Leadership Team Share Posted August 6, 2021 I'm 6'2". Admittedly I have lowered floors, but I've been touring bare headed and wearing everything from baseball caps to a panama hat in the 7 with side screens with no problem from the top.Most of the buffeting people experience is from driving without the side screens, which I often do with this car, though I have the small side deflectors on. My old car was still dreadful for buffeting this way. My present car is OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
