I have been surprised how relatively cool my V8 has been the 
past two summers after driving Euroboxes for several years.  I was 
wondering whether it is something to do with the glass (except the 
rear screen) being nearer to the vertical then modern cars.  Top Gear 
reviewed a car some time back that had A/C fitted as standard because 
the glass was so sloped it was like a green house.
