some williams 1s did have sunroofs, should you specifiacally request on original order. as for the limited to 400 that was tosh, a hand full were produced aftter the officail 400, mine was number 416 and had a sunroof, and a gold renault badge.

your dreaming if you think the silver ones are gonna be worth more, silvers so 1999.
