Car Hoods Northern
I'm afetr a new hood for my Rivage so if you have used these (especially if you had a blue one) let me know how they were and how much.
Pics of any blue hoods would be good.

They come out replaced the hood, I went for a vinyl hood. I also had the back window frame and seals replace. But for the roof alone it cost about £295 + vat. They offered to come out if i had any problems. They work down south as well!!

Was the £295 to buy the roof and fit it then?..

As for the fitting, it was great. From the outside it didn't look any different, although inside it felt much better.

It looks great and I've had no problems with it loosening up or leaking and I live in Manchester so it's not like it hasn't had the opportunity

Their head office/ workshop is clean and tidy and had top end cars in there when I visited.
I will be using them when I have my outer hood replaced soon.
