“The roof system houses a table and two chairs for impromptu picnics and weary guests at cricket matches. In response to the company’s belief that the Japanese appreciate all things British, the cargo box in the rear of the car can be taken out and attached to the side window when open to create a table for serving tea and scones.”

I can just imagine Japanese going out for picnic to watch the cricket and eating their tea and scones!
