In fact I’m fairly certain of it, at least not in the uk. It could have been because they offered air con on some q cabbed models. Something in the back of my mind tells me that certain overseas markets had to have a roof hatch by law as an extra escape route but I don’t know when that came into action. My 7610 certainly looks like it could have easily been fitted with a hatch, the headlining has a drop down access panel just the right size and position for one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
