hi dudes:

just a quick question: will the TE's roof be able to support a 80kg person standing on top?

Yeah why the hell do you want to stand on the single largest sheet of metal on your ride ??
It will hold but will be badly dented from flex ???

yeah Roof Panels aren't strong.

I had the pleasure of throwing out some old Kia, Peugeot, Mitsubishi Roof Panels

They all folded in half very very easily suprised me big time.

What ever you do don't walk on the roof unless you want some nice big ripples at the very least, there is no reinforcement in the roof panel like there is with the bonnet.

:D :D :D thanks for the responses dudes! the reason i asked is, i'm a plane spotter, and i ned to get high enough to take good pics of planes.

judging by the responses i think i will buy a step ladder instead!!! :doubt:

i cant imagine standing on your roof or on the ground would make a big difference when yur taking a photo of a plane some 10,000ft in the air.......maybe get a better camera?

haha, yeah im not sure how getting 1.5m higher will make a difference but seriously buy a ladder its not worth it OR u might be able to get roof racks, then put a platform across the roof racks to stand on not sure how much itl hold tho.
