ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a folding vehicle top whose top cover, which can be stretched over a supporting top frame, has laterally unsecured border regions which are connected to an associated leg of a corner strut via tie means and are only pulled into a fixed tensioned position, via a relative swinging movement of the corner strut, during the closure of the top. In order to be able to fix top cover corners present in the corner region between the top support pillars and the material retaining hoop on the top support pillar by means of the tensioning advance of the tie means, a rearwardly offset intermediate deflection of the tie means on the associated leg of the material retaining hoop is provided.
