The invention concerns a roof wherein the second front panel (5) is linked to the first rear panel (4) via two sets of substantially parallel front (18) and rear (19) auxiliary pivot arms each articulated at their rear end in a respective rear articulation point (20, 21) fixed on the first rear panel (4) and at their front end in a respective front articulation point (22, 23) fixed on the second front panel (5). The roof system (1) comprises means for causing the two sets of auxiliary arms (18, 19) to pivot in one direction or the other to open or close said roof system (1), and the two auxiliary arms (18, 19) of one common set are arranged so as to be located transversely outside the roof panels (4, 5).
