Dare I ask why she wants a diesel or will that spark people to start talking absolute sense about how she doesn't need one?

Brera SV has a glass roof. It doesn't open though. It has an internal electric blind which you can draw for when it's very hot or very cold. The roof makes a huge difference to the interior. So much so that when I replaced mine I had to have another glass roof or sunroof. I think some Mercs, Astras, Meganes have them too.

Maybe it's a company car - hence the lowish tax request?

Well I considered this, but the £30k requirement and no mention of company car tax sought of threw it out of the window.

A very tax efficient option, but not a coupe is the Alfa Giulietta with the new TCT box (like a DSG). The C02 is very low (on both petrol and diesel). A panoramic opening glass roof is available as an option. However as mentioned above if you can get a Scirocco with a glass roof that may well be the most sensible option to tick all your requirements.
