White roof, with sunroof !

jspranza · Dec 18th, 2002, 04:38 PM

I picked the white roof so that everybody could see how big the sunroof is.

Actually, I liked the white roof and wanted a sunroof. I don't like black roofs due to their thermal properties. The white roof looks like white trim almost like a picture frame around the sunroof.

It is the coolest sunroof I have had, though not the quietest.

No SUNroof, whe have more rain than sun in Belgium, lucky we have the best beer in te world

and that helps a lot

I really liked the contrast of the White Roof with the Indi Blue body... but I couldn't leave the roof alone

GadgetGav · Dec 18th, 2002, 05:52 PM

I've got two...!

One that opens and one that's fixed.!

(sorry - couldn't resist)

rich · Dec 19th, 2002, 08:07 AM

Nope... Too darn hot in Aus for a sunroof

If I still lived in the UK I may have gone for it as it's a very cool sunroof, though they're pricey, rattly, add weight & reduce stiffness

Look best on a black roof too, IMO

Yeah, I quite agree. They look very odd on a white roof, to me at least.

Even though my roof is black, I didn't go for the sunroof as I wanted manual air-con and couldn't justify getting a sunroof as well.

I just checked the Sydney forecast - look for a scorching 30C (85F) high this coming Sunday.

I guess it's what you are used to, but too hot for a sunroof? You do have the option of closing it and using the a/c, right?

Bilbo Baggins · Dec 19th, 2002, 09:27 PM

I don't really like the 'greenhouse' thing, so no sunroof for me, thanx.

Besides, I didn't want the added 60 lbs so high above the CG.

CUTiger3 · Dec 19th, 2002, 10:04 PM

Black roof with sunroof! Looks Fantastic IMHO

tip · Dec 19th, 2002, 10:26 PM

I would of liked the sunroof. I would of paid for it, but it was not offered on the first 500 cars entering Canada. I waited long enough to have one of the first cars in Canada. I really can't complain. I still love the car.

retroom · Dec 20th, 2002, 12:09 AM

Didn't get a sunroof and didn't want one. I had a sliding sunroof on a previous car and hardly ever used it. It's a good option for those who like to use it.

Body color with Sunroof ... Love It!

chiph · Dec 23rd, 2002, 08:45 AM

Oops. I clicked "White Roof" before seeing the "Personalized" option further down. (I have factory checkerboard decal, no sunroof)

M0D · Dec 23rd, 2002, 04:32 PM

The sunroof lets in SO much light that you cannot deny the MINI feels instantly more spacious with one!!

Even if you don't use the thing...

DS/DS Cooper S - WITH SUNROOF - Due Jan 2003 - Chilli Pack (Black Sat Half Leather - Manual Air Con - Xenon's - 17"s etc)

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL... Roll on 2003... !!!

Willy · Dec 27th, 2002, 12:09 PM

I got my open air motoring fix with my last drop top. I put the top down a few times a year. Just wasnt worth the trouble, extra $ and extra weight.

Of all the sunroofs I have seen. The MINI's is the best looking.

I went with the classic red and white one, no sunroof

Paulmill · Dec 28th, 2002, 07:08 AM

I was advised not to buy one by the dealer! He said all his most satisfied customers did not have one.
