Will I find a significantly better price than Wickes (£8 for 2000*940) if I shop around? Can anyone suggest a supplier in the Bristol / Gloucester area? I've just Googled without any success.

Is the Wickes product actually Onduline? The Ariel Plastics (aka Brett Martin) web site shows two identical-looking materials, Onduline and Coroline, so I asked them what the difference is, and I've just had a reply that Coroline is thinner (2.8mm cf 3.00mm, but must also be less dense, as it weighs 2.9kg/m^2 cf 3.3kg/m^2.
Ariel describe Coroline as more of a d-i-y product than Onduline, and recommend Onduline for large roofs, low pitches, and over-sheeting.
I'm considering buying anything up to 80 sheets of the stuff, so I might pursue this one a little further. SLE Cladding sell Onduline, and I'm waiting for their price list.
They look very similar, but the Wickes data sheet does give the thickness as 2.8 mm. I will have a look at your other links. Thanks.
I bought Onduline sheeting from Wickes just over 2 yrs ago so if they don't sell it now then they certainly used to....
