Title: Good Quality Canvas Tilt for a 109: Britpart or??
Post by: xmod109 on October 11, 2019, 08:27 PM

I think this will be the last winter for my full Canvas Soft Top, which is good because my Summer bikini one is pretty well rotted so I will be converting the full canvas.
Now I have to source a replacement tilt. Are the Britpart ones good quality or should I be looking at the Exmoor?

I read (on the series 2 club) the best come from undercover covers. It is what land rover use in their restorations.

Thanks, i appreciate the info. I had heard the Exmoor were a better quality than BP but not sure if they were that much different or just a personal preference. I'll check out Undercover covers as well. Just looking for something to keep the snow out that will last. The military tilt I have right now seems more robust than the softer civilian canvas one I had that turned into a bikini, but its a stiffer canvas and waterproofed.

I expect whichever you choose, it'll only last a few years if left out in the weather. I bought the Exmoor olive canvas for this 110. It appeared that the Britpart was similar, but with large side windows. The Exmoor seemed close to exmod stock in my case.
