My experience with Skodas, first the Roomster and later the Fabia is that the full but fixed glass panoramic roof greatly improved cabin ambience/airiness. Neither has leaked and both have sun
blinds for the odd day when the sun blazing through the roof is too much. The Roomie's extended a tad further forwards than in the Fabia's which gives slightly less airiness over the driver's seat.
The first (2005) Berlingo did not have a completely panoramic roof but panels of glass as part of the Desire trim's Modutop roof was a bonus too.
Going back much further I had an after market sunhatch fitted in my Peugeot 104ZS c1983. Made a big difference in a small and slightly claustrophobic interior. It could be popped open at the rear to improve ventilation or removed completely. The latter though created a booming noise at anything over 40mph as air forced in through the roof escaped in bursts.
Just occasionally it would admit a few drips of rain through the nearside front seal - an oddity of a particular slope when parked in heavy rain.
