The Evoque gets the split sunroof on it like the New RR.
I think quite a few potential owners would go for this.
Freelander has a split roof.
Should have been a more expensive option, and i would have chosen it for sure.
For the sake of having a small cross bar in the middle, you get to open the front up to fresh air motoring, and in my opinion, that's half the joy of having a sunroof.
There may be issues with the Chassis stiffness being affected by the solid roof, but I would have liked an opening option. Always had a sunroof.
