Default Door Design

heres a thought for all you design freaks...was sat down yesterday by the river in Burnsall north yorks and was looking round at different design features on different cars and it struck me that the scooby was the only car not to have a metal top and side rail on the side windows.What also came to mind was this a major security risk? any thoughts...dos look good though

The old Audi 80s had frameless doors, I think.

I was quite suprised the Scoob did, but it does look good.

Not sure about the security risk. What I do know is how stupid one can look when, having driven a car with framed doors for about a fortnight, using the door frames to shut the doors, you jump into the Scoob, wind the windows down , get out, go to close the door by the non-existent frame, and you end up spinning around looking a complete prat!
