Mankee Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Bit of an impulse buy this as I also bought two Tillets off a guy and I couldn't resist the Soft Bits for Sevens tonneau, so I bought that too. Only problem is that I'm a bit of a stubborn idiot because my track-only Caterham has a full cage and the tonneau doesn't fit too well around the front part of the cage. Durr! 😔 So I've decided that, rather than keep the lovely tonneau, I'll get a more useful to me outdoor cover instead. The tonneau is in very, very good condition. It fits non-SV cars, has the pockets on both sides for Tillets and also has three zips, so you could always use them as half-doors or a half tonneau to cover the passenger side or any sort of combination that you wish. I haven't got any pictures of it at the moment, but will get some on Friday. Basically, it's the same tonneau as on the yellow Caterham on this Soft Bits for Sevens page, except with zips for the half-door parts. I'm after £120 for it. Location is Suffolk, around Ipswich. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankee Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 As promised earlier on in the week, I have some pictures of the tonneau at last. Tonneau1 Tonneau2 Logo Underside There is also one very, very small mark on the driver's side (I think!)pocket. It kinda looks like red paint and only shows up under very bright light. I've taken a picture here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart McGill Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Might be interested in a part ex for a Cover Systems car cover if you havn't already bought one? (Subject to me buying a new car) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankee Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Thanks for the message Stuart. I might actually be interested in your car cover if I haven't already sold the tonneau. Do you have any more details on whic Cover Systems one it is? Indoor, outdoor, waterproof etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart McGill Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 It is a Cover Systems one (in a Silver Bag). The cover is the same material as the bag (a silver nylon'ish type material). It is elasticated at the bottom and has a single strap underneath. I have not used it outside as I only use it as a deterrent in an underground car park. I think it is an outdoor cover as seen here: here I can take some photos if you like of it on the 7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankee Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 Thanks for the details Stuart. I am still considering your cover, but at the moment, I am waiting to hear back from a couple of other interested parties before I can think about it further. They look to be good quality car covers and it will only really be used to keep the dust off my car in the garage anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankee Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Hi Graham, good to meet you earlier today. No problems about dropping off the tonneau. At least I have peace of mind knowing that it got to its new owner safely. Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
