Roof system for a cabriolet motor vehicle

A roof system for a cabriolet motor vehicle, comprising:

• a folding top that is movable between deployed and retracted positions;
• a folding-top compartment lid moveable between an open position and a closed position in which the folding-top compartment lid covers the folding top that is in the retracted position;
• and
• at least one side fin provided on a side of the folding-top compartment lid, the at least one side fin being movable from:
• a use position in which the side fin forms a rearward elongation of a support pillar in the deployed position of the folding top and with folding-top compartment lid in the closed position,
• a pivoted-away position in which the side fin is pivoted outwardly away from the folding-top compartment lid about a pivot axis parallel to a direction of travel of the motor vehicle so that the folding-top compartment lid is moving independently of the at least one side fin between the closed and open positions, and
• a pivoted-in position in which the side fin is moved to a position below the folding-top compartment lid, at least part of the movement of the side fin to the pivoted-in position being a pivoting movement about the pivot axis.
