Yeah, i just noticed that. Had my first drive in the rain the other day. Very loud in not very heavy rain.
Reminded me of my childhood spent on holidays in caravans and that constant "tink tink tink" noise on the roof.
Solution - turn the music up louder and sing even louder

DefLeppard,
Agree with you on noise when it's raining.
Had a hail storm the other morning, was like someone dancing on roof in tap shoes.
Just checked out your pictures, really nice looking car, you chose well mate.

Maybe it's something to put on the list then. Better soundproofing of the roof.

Just spent a week in a caravan. Even they have managed to move forward with the sound proofing!
A case for the Meridien upgrade perhaps?

Where did you get the dog guard?

Travall web site cost £100. great value and less than half price of the LR one
