Hi. Haven't been on here for a while but was just wondering if anyone had any advice on buying a new devon roof canvas. I have found a place near me to have it fitted but I'm hearing different opinions on the quality of the canvases. Proud to pop do the devon moonraker stripe, as do outermotive although I just spoke to the chap there who's having supply "issues". Any advice would be great, I'm trying to keep the van as original as possible so am really after the devon moonraker stripe with beige ends.
Thanks in advance.... Rob

I have a proud to pop canvas on my devon and it is a quality bit of kit. Worth the wait I reckon. It was all nice and square and was a perfect fit. 3 weeks I waited for mine.
How much are you being charged to fit it and does that include replacement strips for the bottom?

Concept poptops in Bournemouth make quality roofs too with a choice of different canvas types/grades. Did a great job on ours

It was dead easy to fit myself, the quality is superb.

Re: anyone bought a devon roof canvas recently?
Cheers for that guys, seems like most of the companies making them are good.
I've been quoted £300 incl. vat & sundries ie which I didn't think was too bad but I reackon I'll probably do it myself (rope a mate or 2 in). It doesn't look difficult just time consuming!
I'll let you know how I get on.
