Bought my first Porsche an hour ago and the roof's stuck!

Sounds like to either have a borken cable on the left side or the left side top transmission went out.

If it is either one of these it could be somewhat costly. Keep in mind when replacing the top cables/transmissions that the drives need to be calibrated.

Thanks, just to update, took to porsche specialist, few cables gone and other problems including a pretty significant bend in the metal, left side, that runs across behind the screen. £400 damage, hopefully getting it back on Tuesday so I can finally ride the damned thing. Like waiting for christmas day!

What people don't usually do as preventative maintenance and may create a problem like this is to grease the slide rail attached to the quarter panel.
