A Schumacher with a skyroof...

I accept banishment from the Stilo forum if the answer to this is blatantly obvious. I did try a search though... So here we go... Were any Schumachers ordered or supplied with skyroofs? And could anyone guess at what proportion?

Used car websites throw up a fair few Schumachers for sale, some of which have been around a while, but I think I have yet to see one with a skyroof. However, I recall a post in this forum a long time ago - where I'm sure the owner had both together! I recognise that Stilos with skyroofs generally are uncommon, but any confirmation would be much appreciated.

Thanks for any light you can shed on this...

As far as I was aware, there were no pre-orders on the Schumi, they were just made to a standard spec and allocated to dealers, obviously a certain amount with the GP kit.

Think there were a fair few hanging around a compound somewhere before they all got eventually got sold at dicounted prices.

Some second hand bargains out there now!

there is a guy on here with a skyroof, not in this country though, none here have em, we only got one model, and only 200 of em, all 2.4's, some of which were changed to the gp spec, whilst abroad, they got the jtd 120 engine, and other colours and the 5dr too

Re: A Schumacher with a skyroof...

Thanks for this. That expains the post I saw - as he had no reg plates on at the time ! And the lack of pre-orders makes sense.

A mystery then - about 18 months ago - on a UK website like Parkers that picks up private and dealer sales etc - there was a Schuey in the usual red on a 05 or 06 plate with standard skyroof fitment - it was open - in the pic - and listed on the spec. It was priced at £14k - much too much for me at the time - I'm sure a Fiat dealer was selling it. Whether pre-registered or slightly used - that price must be Schumacher territory? It disappeared after 3 weeks - much quicker than other Schumachers on sale at the time...
