Abstract
An elastic seal is provided in the region of the abutment edges of adjacent roof parts. The elastic seal is arranged on a water-discharge channel of a rear roof part and exhibits an integral, elastically compliant sealing section which, by means of an abutment edge of the movable roof part, depending on an opening or a closing movement of said roof part, can be moved between a relieved rest position, in which it forms a splash guard and is opened out upwards, and a loaded position, in which it covers over the water discharge means in a sealing manner. The roof parts are part of a lamella roof of a passenger car.
