ABSTRACT:
A removable roof is provided which intended for a motor vehicle passenger car, which covers roof and opening between a windshield frame and a body structure of a vehicle body which extends, for example, behind vehicle occupants seats. The removable roof is formed of a dimensionally stable material and is held in position, on the one side, by means of a form-lockingly acting fixing system and, on the other side, by means of a locking system. So that, while the mounting and demounting are simple, the roof is securely fastened to the vehicle body, the roof comprises two roof elements which are fitted together without hinges in a longitudinal center plane, each roof element cooperating with the windshield frame, by means of a first fixing device and a second fixing device of the fixing system, and with the vehicle body frame structure by means of a locking device of the locking system.
