Funny video of Jaguar Vanden Plas as a NYC daily-driver
It's interesting to see how NYC traffic is, what you see on to or cinema isn't necessarily true. However, I think sunroofs are stupid and watching this video made me appreciate the extra headroom you get not having one even more. LOL
Same here... On a rainy day it is tilted, when it is dry it is wide open. Heck, even with snow I have the sunroof open. Or in winter. It is just soooo much more pleasant. In my XJ-S I want it out.
Everyone has their own opinion, I personally don't like sunroofs. I use the term "stupid" to convey my feelings, not as a defining word. Every sunroof I've ever encountered on any car has leaked or not sealed against the wind properly. In the case of the XJ it robs you of a chunk of headspace. I personally never drive with windows open in my XJ, I always have the climate control on. In my Triumph, I can remove the whole roof so if I feel the need for wind in my hair I will use that.
I've had 3 cars with sun/moonroofs. Not a one has ever leaked, had wind noise or not operated correctly. Maybe I've been lucky.
