Default Noisy (wind-noise) roof

Hi!

I am a convertible virgin(!), but assume that there should not be such a noise coming through my drivers-side door/window/roof?..I have only owned him for a week and drove faster than I normally do yesterday, hence noticing the noise!..how can I fix this?..there is no wind/draught coming through into the car - just a tad noisy!

BTW:..just LOVING the spoiler movement on the motorway - was quite emotional!!

With the roof up and the windows closed (!) spray a jet of water along the seam using a garden hose, turned high. If water gets in, air gets in even though you may not feel it. This will be a start on reducing the noise.

But, cabrios are louder, and better, than coupes, no?

To be honest, I can live with the noise cos he is just the most beautiful specimen and drives faultlessly
Do I miss my RX?..absolutely not
