Woody said it was the roof glue, others said it was the carpet glue and frankly I have never smelt it.
Europe has very strong laws against adhesives made from petroleum products, and use water based adhesives when possible, maybe that is what it is. Maybe it comes from the seats.
I used 3M 77 spray glue on my roof liner and there is no smell now.
