Based on info seen to date, a very easy way to tell visually whether you have a speaker in the exhaust (the "external" sport and sound version) is to see whether you have a transverse silencer under the rear bumper.  The ones with the exhaust speaker don't have any transverse silencer.
Hope you're liking the roof - good choice (I would say that as I have one :grin:).

Went to visit family in Bristol for new Years and was looking forward to the roads in and around Bristol ( Good roads to test your car on different ypes of bends and speed) pulls very well and very good grip on conti tyres, good mpg, reasonable road noise and stops very well.... :smug:
