Abstract: The invention relates to a wrap-over swinging-sliding door (2) which swings into a closure position at the end of its closure stroke. The door is guided relative to the vehicle bodywork by a bottom rail (4) which co-operates with wheels (3a) fixed to the panel and by at least one top rail (7a, 7b) which is situated at roof level and which co-operates with a horizontal wheel (6a, 6b) which is guided therein and which is capable of moving vertically when the bottom wheels engage a swing-imparting slope which lowers the door at the same time as it moves the door into the bodywork.

Abstract: An opening roof arrangement for a motor vehicle roof which consists of a carrier structure in the form of a frame which is capable of being mounted in an opening in the vehicle roof and retained on the edge thereof. A panel is mounted to a support assembly pivotally mounted on the frame about a pivot axis which is parallel to and in the vicinity of the front edge of the frame. An operating and locking member is mounted to the support assembly and co-operates with a rear edge of the frame to cause the support assembly to pivot from a first position in which it extends in a horizontal plane of the frame, the panel forming a closure system for the opening by resting on a seal provided on the inside edge of the frame, to a second position in which the support assembly is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane of the frame about the pivot axis.
