The search option on this forum is your best friend but it appears you have a leaky sunroof. Search leaking sunroof on here and all your questions will be answered.

Do you have sunroofs?

Are you parked on level ground when it's leaking?

what area of the roof does it 'appear' to be leaking from?

We need a bit more info cos we aren't psychic.

Also, can you buy the mounts for the roof bars where they attach to the roof skin, they are perished and knackered, I have tried several outlets but no body seems to sell them

You mean the foam pads under the bars? There's two versions depending on your chassis number, mine is fitted with these, CAJ000020, CAJ000030, CAJ000040 and CAJ000050. If it ever stops raining for long enough to work on mine on a day off I've got some blanking caps to fit instead of re attaching the bars, for now Gaffa tape is doing the job.

It may be coming from the screen itself. There is a Land Rover repair procedure for it.

I was simply trying help you with working in the rain situation although this wind would lift a car easy.
Maybe whist its in the air you could do some work underneath
