    Technology is clearly beyond me. Hope this one works better.

    Frostee - wind noise hasn't been an issue although I've only had open on suburban streets. Unfortunately the weather has been fairly average since I picked it up so haven't really had a chance to try it out properly. It's a fairly smooth opening and closing process and not too noisy in my opinion. There are 'stop' points between open and closed so you don't have to have it open the whole way if you don't want.

    Great photos chris_m. Looks fantastic. I'm so glad I ordered the sun-roof......it's worth the extra wait.

    IMHO, I still feel the mechanism looks a little untidy, forgetting about that sock up front, why does the sunroof open above the car roof and not into the car roof lining? With all these external parts, one would think that there must be some noise generated at speed?

    Because it's a panoramic sunroof.
    The sunroof is way too large to stay inside the lining....

    Also comes down to the shape of the roof too, it's wider at the front then at the rear. With the height that the glass panel opens too, I beleive that you would lose too much headroom if it opened internally.
