This issue is really bugging me as I really would like to spec the pano roof, not for the opening but for the light it lets in. If I have it but NEVER open the roof, can I safely assume the drains cannot become blocked, even if it's parked under trees?
Just spec it. You will be fine....unless you regularly park under trees.
That's the issue, I do (and have no choice but to due to TPO on the tree in question).
Install a car port?

I think you might be overthinking this? If you want a roof, spec the roof it’s under warranty anyway and is unlikely to cause fault even if you lived in a forest!

I won't bore you with the reasons why, but not an option.

Every year I have to sweep up several wheelie bins full of sticky blossom from our driveway. Believe me, it would be less of an issue if we lived in a forest!

Was taken to A&E in one of those about 46 years ago after a bad injury playing football. And people moan about ambulance services today

Seriously, it took me 30 minutes to clear my drains, you are definitely over thinking this.
