Default Cabriolet Roof

Does anyone know of any decent companies for a new roof? I've had a look online and prices vary from £250 to £600 so if anyone has used one before and would recommend them it would be appreciated.
It's for a 205 and i only need a vinyl one if that makes any difference.

Thanks

Thanks mate, just looked on their site and its almost £700. Do Escorts have a lining inside? I'm wondering if that may explain the price? I've found one site that mentions it's only hood and window which make sense if its cheaper i guess. I don't even know it my car had a lining as the roof is fucked
I'm going to email them and see what they say about it anyway.

Wow , yea they do but it doesnt come with it , nor does the window and you have to cut the window in yourself. Cant mind if it came with the cable though and i had to ask for the screws for the side separate they threw them in good company.

I'll see what they come back with then. If it's only the roof and window i've found one for £350. Prestige say they use factory quality haartz fabrics, where as the other says haartz style vinyl but at half the price i'm not that worried i don't think.
