I have now found a source of an imperial size seal measuring 3/8 inch thick and which allows my boot lid to close properly, probably the same as originally fitted ex factory.

The company is Vintage Supplies, Happisburgh, Norfolk, NR12 0RX, (England) , Tel no 01692 650455, website www.vintagesupplies.com and the seal is reference SSSF (apparently a Bentley boot trim !! )"

Addendum May 10, 2005:
Also good dimensions on a boot seal from Macgregor British Car Parts in Ontario Canada
 
Addendum January 30, 2006:
Good dimensions reported on a boot seal from Bob West in the UK.
Also a good report on boot lid seal from Scaroborough Faire.
