It was stored in a garage.... now I know why.
The roof is leaking. It's been stood on my drive for three days. It was a lovely day today, thought I'd go out, take some photos and generally find out how things work.
Then I noticed large damp patch right across the front where the pop top joins the front side, and two damp patches at the back at the corners either side of the door. Got the stepladder out to inspect on the outside, I think someone has at some point in the past actually got on the roof and sort of pushed it in or something. Maybe stood or sat on! Just my luck.:(
Doesn't look to be too big a job to fix though, although I'm going to need some help. Going to get one of my sons to help me put a tarp over it unless I can at least stop the ingress from the outside tomorrow (promising to be a fine dry day) with sealer.
I knew I should have gone with my gut instinct and walked away.
I just hope it can be fixed or that's £900 of scrap I have on the drive.
attached some pictures of the inside for you.
I've also taken some pictures of the damp, but it doesn't show very well, so I'll have to picture edit them before I can add them.
So here's a pic of me
that's a dunces cap and I couldn't be kicking myself any harder than you could! Bleughhhh!!!!!
