Routed MDF Tongue & Groove Panelling

We want to replace some wood panelling with routed MDF, the trouble is most of the routed MDF sold in DIY stores is too wide. I need it to match the width of the panelling we already have elsewhere in the house.

Design websites talk about using this stuff all the time, but I've yet to find where to buy it. Tried Google, either the sites are in the USA, they only deliver in London, they are selling plastic stuff for bathroom panels or they are shopping portals returning weird results or manufacturing sites where you have to visit a depot to collect - all the depots seem to be in the North of England!!

We live in Scotland. Anyone bought this stuff online or can advise where to get it?

Thanks

    Any joiners shop will do this for you. Have you considered doing it yourself? Routers can be bought really cheaply these days and all you need is a router and a straight edge.

    Have considered but the problem is space! We'd probably have to do it outside in the street, not ideal. Don't have a garage or garden.

    Wanted to get stuff ready routed as we are quite remote, transporting to and from a joiners would be a hassle.

    We do have a real problem with tradesmen in this area. All the good ones are too busy!!
