ABSTRACT:
A folding roof for convertible vehicles includes a front roof part hinged to a rear roof part whose rear end is hinged to the vehicle. The front and rear roof parts can be stowed in the trunk of the vehicle with the front roof part folded over the rear roof part connected to its hinge to the vehicle. The rear roof part has a central roof part hinged to the rear roof part, extending as far as the hinge between the front and rear roof parts and cooperating with an arrangement which, when the roof is stowed in the trunk, holds the central roof part at a distance above the rear roof part.
