That's very tidy looking. I may well have a shot at that, as I'm short of an economic car at the moment. Athough I could really do with a non-sunroof car to be honest.

hmmm.

Does look nice, didnt realise that you could actually get non sunroof cars unless they were on the poverty spec cars?

I thought the same, but I saw a 14 Preview this evening, it had no waistrail rubbers, no sunroof, no rear wiper, VERY basic, and I've seen lots of Previews, my dad had one years ago, and they all had sunroofs....
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

My 19RD doesn't have a sunroof.

Why don't you like sunroofs, David? It's the one thing I miss on mine - I love 'em.

Because in a BX hatchback with sunroof, my head touches the headlining... all the damn time, and it's REALLY annoying! Non-sunroof cars have about 2" more headroom (and estates even more of course)

the BX digit is a non-sunroof car, which is nice. I'd rather have A/C and no sunroof, or a proper convertible.

Ahh I see! My dad had the same problem with a Pug 106 he used to have - he loved the car, but he had to sell it as it was doing his neck in.

The R trim cars didnt have sunroof until it went on to the TG series then only the 19TGD had one.

?? How come my 19RD (July '89) has a factory sunroof then?? :?

Come to think of it, I've had loads of RD's that have had sunroofs, infact the only BX I ever owned that didn't have a sunroof was a Leader!
