The time has finally come to replace my s/h 1996 BMW 328i SE and my
first choice would be another petrol s/h 3-Series of similar or better
performance.

But I'm dismayed that none of the more recent models offer a sun roof.
An essential requirement for me.

What's the reason for that omission, which looks widespread across
most brands?
