No shrinkage No cracking No problems

As fellow A-Series enthusiasts, we are sure you appreciate that your car requires not only the best in maintenance and care, but also the best in terms of accessories.

Once it was taken for granted when you bought a hood for your 2CV or Dyane that after a year or two (if you were lucky) it would start to shrink, crack and fade. In some cases you would notice an unattractive green mould growing on the inside of the hood or condensation would drip onto your neck every time you turned a corner above 3 miles an hour. Inevitably, your hood would split and let the rain in. As A-Series owners you took all these things in your stride.

Now you have an alternative. Matt's Soft Tops are not made from the traditional vinyl or plastic which cause so many problems; they are made from acrylic canvas which goes on looking as good as new year after year.

Hoods

With our huge range of plain colours and stripes you are certain to find something to enhance your 2CV or Dyane. Matt's Soft Tops are made from silicon water-proofed acrylic canvas.

Most plain colours also come with a polyurethane coating underneath. In either case, the hoods offer superb water-resistance. Your hood can either be sent for you to fit yourself (full instructions are included) or you can come to Chichester and we will happily fit your new hood free of charge.

We are firm believers in recycling where it is practical. We recondition parts from old hoods to the highest standards. This is why P&P includes the picking up of your old hood once you have fitted your new Matt's Soft Top. If we fit the hood for you, we take your old hood at the time. Of course we are always flexible should you require an alternative arrangement.

Plain Hoods :
Colours shown on left; all shades are approximate; please ask to see swatches for accuracy.

Striped Hoods :
Colourways shown on right; all shades are approximate; please ask to see swatches for accuracy. Whilst we try to show only the stripes which are currently available, we need to confirm with our canvas suppliers that your choice is still in stock. Therefore any order for a striped hood is subject to confirmation.

Special Designs for Hoods :
Two examples are shown below. Do you have a design you yearn to see reproduced as a hood? We might just be able to help as we can offer not only custom lengths & styles, but also custom patterns such as national flags, emblems and unusual combinations of colours.

The Sun Roofs are easy to fit and come in the usual dazzling range of Matt's Soft Tops colours.
