Niall,
The roof system is the best and worst part of the car. Clever,
ingenious and ahead of it's time, but the water ingress is an issue.
As previously noted the rear screen was never meant to entirely seal,
but the handling of the water that does make it in has never to my
knowledge been properly resolved. With Jim Hearne looking at the
problem we may now have a solution on the horizon.
From Jim's comments it may be worth looking into a seal for the bottom
of the rear screen that is U-shaped and will meet the rubber on the rear
body work. The tricky part would be attaching flexible drain tubes to
the U-shape seal that would allow water to be fully managed and kept
away from the encapsulated chassis as well as being flexible enough to
allow the read screen to operate as intended.
Having said all that, from your photos it appears that the gap on your
car is larger than many. Have you tried adjusting the screen, as there
is some movement available which could lessen the gap.
If you are coming to Stoneleigh this weekend maybe we could have a look?
Regards,
Steve

I've been messing around with a variety of different seals for a few
weeks and I just cant seem to figure out how it should work.
The gap between the windscreen and the rear body just looks much too
big to me to find anything that would reasonably seal it?
The old seal was reasonably inflexible and perished but even with a
like for like new seal on there is a whopping gap underneath the
windscreen.
I can't even consider taking it out in the rain or washing it or anything!
