Default Christmas Tree on Pano Roof

Hi all,

Super random question for everyone: has anyone transported a 7 ft Christmas Tree on their F-Type with a Pano roof? My gut is saying NOOOOOOO but I really only need it for 1.5 miles up a hill. Usually they tie down the a wrapped tree behind the door frame, but we don't even have that. Would love to hear some stories.

Cheers and Happy Holidays!

I moved a large bedroom armoire on my glass roof - no issues - a holiday tree should be a piece of cake.

I've been eyeing the Seasuckers to add a rack for sure. I've taken the jag camping surprisingly and I think this would be a big level up. Thanks everyone!

Just yesterday I saw my neighbor pull into their driveway in their new Audi sedan with a Christmas tree tied to the roof with string. They had nothing under the tree to protect the paint. I cringed thinking about the amount of scratches that that new car just acquired because they were too dumb to put an old blanket or something between the tree and the roof.

Mission accomplished. Didn't know that a 7 footer was pretty light. Used a heavy ceramics mat under and she's perfectly fine.
