I'm going this road now and will be shortly ordering a range of repair panels through club spares.

I've managed to get a photo of all the repair panels that the Radford Panel Company produce for the 1.5. Here it is. They're now closed for the Christmas period.

Graham, Do they have a price list? - there is nothing on their website. Roger

Is Radford the firm that produces the Club bits?

Roger. No prices as yet. That's being sent to me, I think, when they re-open after the Christmas and New Year shut down. I'll send it to you by PM when I get it. I've also asked how long the lead time is from ordering to delivery. I think they charge delivery on a per item basis. It might/might not be cheaper for me to just drive up there to collect them. In actual fact, I think I'd rather go and collect them as it would be interesting to see the place as well.
Bruce. I've no idea.

Graham - they are just a couple of miles from me and I have collected panels - not much to see, just an anonymous unit on a trading estate, might affect your decision if you are coming a long way! Rob

Rob, thanks for the info. I'm Bristol based so not too far and I could make it a day trip and take in a couple of places I'd like to go to as well whilst up that neck of the woods.

Here's the repair panel price list from the Radford Panel Company. Their covering email also advised there's a five month lead time from order to delivery. Hope no-one wants or needs repair panels urgently. Also, payment upfront is required. Prices shown do not include VAT or carriage costs. RILEY 1.5 - Radford Panel Company - price list.pdf (18.07 KB)

When I ordered panels from the Club, I only waited 4 weeks or so with a week transit to me. I thought this pretty good.

Bruce......blimey, that was good.
They've quoted that lengthy time frame as they're behind in meeting orders. It's good to see that such a company has a full order book but how many people will wait as long as they've quoted before going elsewhere........if there is anywhere else that is.

Repair panels ordered from Club Spares. Two reasons (both financially beneficial) as opposed to going direct to Radford. 1. the club get a discount - 2. there's no VAT to pay.
Yup, I've been quoted a five month delay so Mabel's aesthetics will have to stay as they are for a while now. For various reasons, even though I should get the repair panels in May or June I guess no progress will be made on the bodywork until October or November.
