I need to get a new roof on my mk3 cabrio but not sure which is best. Ive been told about a place doing Mohair roofs fitted for £250 which to me seems really cheap. I would personally of thought vinyl was harder wearing, stronger and easier to clean but then i dont actually have any experience of mohair.
Any advice?

German car's should have Mohair, and never Vinyl! Its the law!
Mohair properly looked after will outlast Vinyl, though Mohair hoods should only be opened and shut when the hood is fully dry, because it may shrink!

vinyl will look ok until you see the same car with mohair. then your life will be full of regret

had a new mohair roof on my mk3 about four years and 80 thousand miles ago and with a quick brush still looks new no fraying splitting etc was a car hoods direct one fitted for around £350. vinyl ones crack and loose there colour.
