ABSTRACT:
A vehicle roof with a roof opening made in the stationary roof panel is described, wherein the roof opening can alternately be closed or at least partially opened by an adjustable covering that moves in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle combined with a wind deflector that includes a wind deflector plate mounted to pivot between a pushed-out position and a rest position around a transverse pivoting axis, which can be adjusted along a guide mechanism in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The wind deflector when pivoted into the rest positions can be pushed into a receiving space located below the stationary roof panel in front of the front edge of the roof opening. A catch mechanism is provided for automatic slaving the transverse pivot axis of the wind deflector plate for movement in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle with a part connected to the cover during at least a part of the adjustment movement of the covering that occurs in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.
