Steve,
It might be worth talking to a ships chandlers or camping suppliers. You should be able to buy some kind of fabric die to restore the colour. I found that with mine the leading edge had been polished smooth where it gets stored in the boot and no amount of treatment has made it look any better.

That's strange because Saab's the maindealer and there's a 9/3 converntible with a dark red roof option.

Might be worth asking a Saab garage.
