Convertible roofs can take some of the elements the UK weather has to throw at them but, they can look very tired and worn if left out all year round. They are also very expensive to replace so this is a very good reason to tuck them away for some of the year. At RJF we can also store your hard top through the summer months if you have one.
7. Storing your car whilst it’s "On the Market"
The car market is a funny old thing, but if you are going to achieve the best price for your vehicle then you would most likely sort out any minor defects and also undergo a service, fresh MOT and have it detailed to present it for marketing purposes. Whilst your vehicle waits for its new owner to snap it up - why not ensure that it is kept that way until it finds its new custodian.
