As far as I know no Marcos (certainly pre Mantara) ever came with 
sunvisors as standard (a number of roadtests lament their absence), 
so use whatever fits! :^)

I'd really strongly urge you NOT to use the standard V4 4 speed with 
the V6 - Without overdrive the ratios are terrible (Not that 
brilliant even with it!) being MUCH too low geared. The 5 speed 
sounds a good option, which I've been half-heartedly exploring for 
some years now...
