A few pence under £3k when I had my 110 fitted out with one of those.
Don't let Robin have it, he will have to buy another 109 to go with it..........

Garage on one side and big shed on the other means the back lawn is out of bounds for Land Rovers, much to Susan's relief

The roof windows are toughened glass. Dormobile usually used 3/16" glass but also 1/8" glass. If you are replacing your seals, make sure you have the correct size for the glass in your roof. I ordered seals for 3/16" glass and then found I had 1/8" glass
So, I now have 3/16" glass in my roof which was easy enough to have cut by a local supplier. On the plus side, I can now see through them. Make sure you allow for the thickness of the seal. I have 2 x 1/8" glass windows going spare. I can use them to draw a paper pattern if anyone needs one.
Oh, and fitting the windows into the new seal is a total pain! I suggest getting a professional to do it for you

Have been in contact with Dormobile, and they think that for the entire roof (including pallet) the weight is about 100kg. Having never tried moving one, does this sound about right?

They have probably moved more roofs than I have so I would be inclined to believe them.

Hi Rob

Rob
doesnt this roof have canvas and bunk(s)?
and isn't attached to the land rover roof?
that would add some
I have a complete roof and side panels in the way at home and that weighs a fair bit.

It is, hence checking the weights. No side panels though - it's only the top. Need to measure up too for the courier checks - couldn't see to do it last night.
