Thread: Will be Retro

Looks like a matte black roof with camo panels wrapping around...surely they won't go all Wrangler.

Cheers

I said it before, "canvas" on a ute but not on a wagon....I really, really hope they don't do that. Glass sunroofs have their problems with water... imagine what these would be like. Not to mention how bad they look with that folded canvas bunched up at the back when its open. It just does not seem like the right sort of car for that kind of opening.

BR, it's just my opinion so you don't have to offer up a retort.

Yup, I believe if there is a line in the glass it opens. Im interested in the ragtop, kinda cool if you dont have a rack on.

So whenever anyone has an opinion, dont reply? Kinda against the whole premise of forums

Your reply to me was a retort, I can't retort to your retort? (rhetorical retort)

All jokes asside Fiat and Jeep seem to do it fine and we don't seem to hear the issues of 20 years ago with sunroofs on modern Rovers, engineering and quality has come a long way. Judging by the photos, your hope may be hopeless..

I have had a leaky 89 range rover classic sunroof, also have a 93 RRC with no probs and another latest Gen JLR product with full glass also no dramas.

Being rather follicly challenged - I hate sun roofs.
They either burn your solar panel OR they all eventually leak.. It's a big no thanks from me!

(Yes I have owned a few vehicles with sun roofs and even a convertible once).

Over most of Australia, getting a car with a sunroof is either useless - or you have plans to keep the oncologists in business in the future. And they tend to leak.

Canvas roofs are typical of bottom line economy vehicles, the classic example being the Citroen 2CV!
