For anyone looking to do DIY roof repair:

Hey folks,

new on here - picked up my 99 white, MK 2RS on halloween and have been getting used to it since.

Anyway - first issue I had with my car was two small rips in the roof which I have now repaired myself -

If you can't afford a replacement roof - and lets face it, they are not cheap - you could try the same stuff as I did:

www.sugru.com

Its a self curing vinyl / neoprene type sealant. I managed to use it to patch up the holes in my roof, plus a few other things around the house. :)

Please note that I am not affiliated in any way with the above website - just think its a fantastic product and was perfect for my needs of repairing my vinyl roof.

Now I just need to find ONE single alloy wheel in a 15X6JJ (Silver finish). Any about? 8)

Saw a programme about this on the TV. I think there is an irish connection, it is named after the irish word for play
