Cost of replacing flat garage roof, 6 x 3?

Hi.
Unfortunately my flat garage roof needs to be replaced, it is well over 20 years old.
It leaks & the original roof material is lifting.
It looks like the old boards have seen better days too as the edges are all wet.
The garage roof is 6 x 3.
Before I start getting quotes, can anyone help with an estimate for how much it would it cost to remove & replace the complete flat roof?
I have no idea!
Thank you for any help you can give me!

6 x 3 what?
Feet, yards or metres.Life in the slow lane0 -
As it's a garage I would assume yards or metres. Ball park price for either wouldn't be very different. What we do need to know is what the OP wants to replace the existing roof with.

With mine. I left old roof in place, added some insulation on top of it, then created a framework with timber & laid Coroline Roofing Sheets.
Think it was around £400 all in, but that was not counting my time & labour.
