Hello and welcome Stephen.
A few years ago another P6 owner and myself were looking for the correct huntsman brown material to use to recover our sunroofs.
Mick had bought a complete roof panel with a black webasto to get removed and recovered and fitted into his White/brown P6 which currently didn't have a sunroof..
I got my existing worn brown webasto recovered.
Mick and I were searching all the UK and Mick found probably the only guy in the UK who had just barely enough left of the correct material to do the job!
And he has the experience to do it,as he fitted these sunroofs to Rovers when new in the 70's.
He is in Kent and Mick took his car "without sunroof" and the donor roof with sunroof to him to have the work done,which aint cheap,but I removed my folding section and sent it to be recovered,then refitted it myself which cost me circa £200.
Finding a roof panel with a period correct sunroof from a P6 is not easy,especially if you want the rare brown one.
There are a few places about who will fit you a complete new webasto,but you would probably have to get the roof and 1/4 panel vinyl recovered at the same time for a perfect match,or the roof panel recoloured to match.
Heres one company up your way!
