Wot, no sun roof?
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? -- Terry, East Grinstead, UK |

I saw a very sporty BMW at the dealers that had no sunroof and was told it was a carbon fibre roof and that meant no sunroof A long time ago I went shopping for a Honda Accord and when I told the salesman I wanted a sunroof, he scoffed because most of his customers were Chinese and they only want aircon and don't care about sunroofs. I ended up buying a Prelude as all Preludes had sunroofs. A lot of the nice sports cars have no sunroofs, like the Audi TT and the Porsche Cayman. It costs more money to make a small car strong enough to have a sunroof. I live in Canada and I think all the 3 Series BMW's have sunroofs. |
