I've seen it before but then I've spent many nights searching google til my eyes go square lol
Notice the lack of sunroof and the aerial is on the roof.

where would the aerial be otherwise?
i've got another one at the back of the roof for some reason too.

On the phase 1 UK 405 the aerial is mounted in a hole on the nearside rear wing. Looks like everywhere else in the world it's on the roof.

No headlight washers either!

I'm thinking of getting my aerial taken out and smoothed over if I get a respray! There's always the other one!

Dunno, I never really tried to get it working. It was left on the scrap car!

Use the other aerial! It's jusy as good for reception and saves waiting for the electric one to decide what it wants to do!

But I could never find this other aerial on my car.

Oh!

I'm sure they all had them...

Don't think the earlier cars had them... My J reg had one but my H reg doesn't. So there is a good chance yours never had one Kris

Oh well nevermind.
I know the Aussies never had sunroofs but had aircon instead which is a much better way of doing things. Less weight high up in car, more headroom, no sunroof to go wrong. Tis the season to be moaning!

lol. I wish my 405 didn't have a sunroof, it's a PITA not having any headroom. Still, the bucket seats should sort that

Of course the LeMans was sunroofless, by then they'd realised the error of their ways. Trouble is I'm not keen on diablo red. I'd have to be resprayed. Oh and then have a nice XU10J4RS thrown in for good measure.

am i the only person who likes the sunroof

Aww Stuart ((((huggles))))
I don't hate it, it's just that it's got several drawbacks and any possible cooling benefits are made redundant by my aircon.

I like it, my heaters/air con is rubbish!

think some one else had put that on? Looks like a bee sting aireal might have been for some other thing like a cb radio or phone kit or the might have just liked the look

There was one of those on my black 4bie... I did wonder what it was for, but definitely didn't want to put it on my car!

aaaah, good thinking!
that would explain the "evidence" of a phone holder on the dash then!
