I briefly owned a mid-80s Nissan that had remote opening for the rear quarter windows. This was accomplished with some style, consisting of two levers between the front seats that looked and operated like aircraft throttle levers, and simply pushed and pulled the window by cable.

As for the Brabazon, I'm afraid I'm not a fan.

Don't forget, the BMW 3-series coupe has had electric operation of the
rear windows for over 10 years.

Actually didn't the Rolls Royce Silver Shadow 2 door coupe and its other variants, such as the James Young 2 door bodywork have elec opening rear quarterlights as opposed to windows that dropped down into the body? This being 1966-67.
I think even Ferraris such as the early 365 coupes had this as well

I remember a tiny Lancia Y10 I had years ago also had electric windows like that. A rather nice "show-off" gadget. This thread is getting rather anorackky, isn't it !
