Was wondering this.
Mine does, but I seem to remember the guy who sold it to me saying something like "No other Puma's have sunroofs"
Not too sure if he was
a. lying
b. saying it had a factory mod
c. saying he modified it himself.
I would be worried if it was c although have had quite a few horrible rainy days and no leaks so I guess no real need to worry. But I was just wondering if other Kats have em.

Is it electric or manual? Does it slide or just tilt?

Okay so he wasn't lying about it not being standard so. I always wanted one but now that I have it I could take it or leave it really. Adds a fair bit of noise to fast journeys

It's ONE redeeming point really
It was quite nice yesterday just to opening it and get a bit of air flow.
Also makes the car nice and light inside.
OK the Puma's don't need one if you have Aircon.
Bit like my mates Z4 3Ltr BMW he bought last week, a convertible with Aircon.
But it covers every possibility.

Two years ago, mine cost £349 fitted and took less than an hour and half to do the job. Check out the thread on here somewhere for the address, phone number of the dealer that fitted it. After all of the rain, snow etc we've had I've still had no leaks. They are rare and as such very hard to find, it took the dealer a month of ringing round to get one for me. They are the same units as fitted to the Ka so you can ask for a Ka/Puma sunroof. There is a place in Bristol that quoted me £550 for an electric one but it was a bit much for the budget so I stuck to the manual tilt wind up option. You do get a bit of wind noise when the roof's up but it's never bothered me at all. I've never seen another with a sunroof, but I was told that there's a couple of others knocking about.

It was never a factory fit option on the Puma.
It could be fitted by a Dealer as it was on the accesory parts list, same as fitted to the Ka.

Does the Ka sunroof only open and not slide as I would really like a tilt and slide sunroof but cannot find anyone who installs them in Teesside. I appreciate any suggestions.
