MG Midget and Sprite General - Tonneaus

I was looking to buy a full tonneau, as my old one is beyond economic repair. MGOC, Sussex classics etc all seem to charge around £120. however Don Trimmings charges £76 which seems like a better price, does anyone have any experience with them?

I had a hood off Dons Hoods for my MkII Midget. Very pleased with it.

No experience of their tonneaux, but their hoods are good.

I bought a tonneau from them earlier this year. It is the most expensive vinyl one they do (decided the best quality was worth the extra as that is what I use all the time rather than the hood). I am very happy with it.

The only thing I will say is that the original had side zips and flaps to attach it behind the seat (MK II) and the new one has not got these, but I think all suppliers are the same as they make them to a price. They did offer to make me one the same as the original if I sent them my old one at no extra cost.

Customer service was excellent although it was a bit slow coming, but I think this was because it was around the time of all the bank holidays.
