Ok one more time......the top unlatches and opens FULLY automatically. The top closes automatically up to about 4 inches from fully closed. You then have to put your hand in the handle above you where there is a pressure sensitive switch which then switches back on the motor and Automatically closes and latches the roof.There is a lighted symbol on the dash to tell you when each direction has reached completion.

There is also a facility so that is you leave and lock the car with the roof open all the compartments glove box, telephone area as well as the CD and Sat Nav containers are locked with solenoids. The interior of the car is protected with microwave sensors to detect intrusion of a hand etc. And a shrill alarm is fitted as standard.

The car does not have a rain sensor, dog running out from the sidewalk sensor, oil on road sensor, anti scrape wheel sensor to stop you hitting the sidewalk BUT...it goes like stink, and feels solid and secure at 140MPH on a long sweeping bend. Enough said....

P.S. It does attract pussy.......mine keeps setting the damn alarm off.
