ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle roof with two covers which are arranged in succession and roughly at the height of the roof contour in the closed position. At least part of the front cover is displaced to the rear above the rear cover into the open position for clearing a front roof opening section, and in this open position, the front cover is supported by laterally arranged support levers, each of which are coupled to the rear area of the front cover and are guided in the lengthwise direction of the vehicle in a guide rail located below the roof contour. The guide rail extends laterally outward of the side edge of the roof opening and in the open position the rear cover is lowered below the roof contour and the support lever extends through a gap which is formed as a result of lowering of the rear cover.
