Plasmor have improved over recent years, but they are still not as colour-fast as the other two manufacturers you mention.

Tobermore - you can get a better price if you use one of their listed contractors to do all the work.

Marshalls - I always get mixed up with these two. One I like and one I don't: I'll have to check the catalogue.....yep! It's the Elite that looks good, especially in the new Firebrick colour. The Excel looks unnatural to my eyes, but that's purely personal taste.

If you're looking for keen prices and good service, try Lunts Heath in Widnes. I'm really impressed with their Landscaping Centre...see this page
