Default Made my 205 into a CSL!!

Why spend 60k on an M3 CSL for its ultra lightweight design features such as use of cardboard, when you can do it for much less to a 205 GTi

Take one 205:


Remove sunroof:


And use a genuine Phil Sherwin enterprises high-tech corrigated replacement item:




Sticky back plastic version coming soon to a rainy day near you!

P.S. After the 3 month long gearbox change saga she runs, good as new I'm proper happy!!

I'm sure it will still leak less than the standard pug roof even if it does rain

No to the electric roof, i've only just managed to get rid of my old one today..

The cardboard is really just a template for the alu planel to be cut tomorrow
