Difficult to fit vinyl to a Minor due to the curvature of the roof. See this thread:

Went to look at one for sale, years ago with a vynil roof. It was done quite neatly, just a little unexpected on a Minor. I didn't buy it, but have a photo of it somewhere...

Regarding fitting, the material does stretch especially if warmed up. It it can be made to go round the much sharper contours of this Railton, then its cetainly possible to do a Minor.
