'vert owners...question

i might take delivery of a 90 vert with a mercedes-cloth top.

question is: ill be parking it outside mostly, how does the top hold up against snow?

i know the main roof is hard and removable, but will it (or the whole unit) buckle if snow were to stay on it?

Mercedes-cloth?

Vert tops on these cars are pretty strong, I don't think there would be a structural problem with getting snowed on, however I would guess that you'd get a little bit of leakage in as the snow melted. IF possible, keep it out of the weather, but it should be okay if you can't.

One thing that pissed me off is that when the snow melts and ice sets into the rubber seals that stop the water from coming in the car freeze up and tear. Thats the problem with mine this summer
