Does anyone have any pics of the roof panel off by any chance?

Do you find that it is airy with the panel off? Does it almost feel like a targa or no?

Also one quick question i have been meaning to ask but do the windows on the Esprit go all the way down or do they leave like an inch up. Because on Pretty Woman the windows though down, are still up a bit. thanks!

Yes it feels like a Targa. I also have 2 roof panels one is GRP and the other smoked plexi panel that lets light in.

The windows do not go all the way down and a little glass is visible.

Found a picture of Dermot's car at Esprit world, it's an S4 with a pictures of the roof off. I think he also visits this site. www.lotusespritworld.co.uk/EOwners/dermot.html

Hi,

In the summer I try to leave the Glass Roof Panel out as much as possible. However, you will find that most cars have lost their wind deflector. With the deflector fitted wind buffeting is not a problem to well over 100 mph...

I've a picture of my GT3 with the roof out, looking down on it but you don't have an email address in your profile, which makes emailing it a bit difficult.

I've often got the roof out of my GT3, just make sure that you up-grade the sound system, as at 100+ mph,the wind noise can ruin it.

No pics though soz. My windows go all the way down, I'm sure!

The windows didn't go all the way down in my '89 but they do in my S4s.
