Topless! How?
You see pictures of Puma's etc without their roof on replaced by a full tilt. How does the roof come off at the front above the the windscreen as it looks to be spot welded?

Theres about ten or so bolts holding it down. Roof comes off in no time at all.

Oh! The same as a Series, it looked different, thanks. It's great to be able to put a tilt on in the summer. I wonder if you had a double cab you could take the cab off and have a tilt on. I could maybe take the second row of seats out and have a longer load bay area or is their a bulkhead in the way? Maybe better than having a hard top and trying to put seats in with the same ability to take the hard top off in the summer!

Hasnt changed on any of them ever. There are the hinges any more.

Seatbelts are a little more challenging and alarm senors relocating etc. Mike

Military spec roll hoop has suitable seatbelt mounts. I fitted one to our 90 a couple of years back, but have since sold the tilt and roll hoop. Rolling Eyes

I noticed that Land Rover UK doesn't sell (or market on their website) the soft top version of the Puma but it is available in other European countries, such as Germany and Belgium.
