UPVC panelling in bathroom

i have a fairly small bathroom, after having my shower taken out and a bath installed (by a family friend who is a builder) that was a really botched job, i have lots of broken tiles and also tiles with holes in them so am having to redo my bathroom. i have been looking at this upvc panelling and wondered if anyone could reccomend it. hopefully my dad will come and help fit it.

plus wanted to know the kind of cost involved is it more expensive than tilling. i also feel im having abit of a blonde moment , my bathroom is roughly 6ft by 7ft (small i know lol) looked at this website dumaplact pvc panelling who sell the stuff by the pack (just a plain white one). it asked room length and width and advised 2 packs totallin £70 plus delivery ,im thinking ive done somethin wrong here as that is way cheaper than i thought it was (which usual means ,when it comes to diy, that im looking at the wrong thing)

any help would be greatly appreciated ????

    They usually come in 2.6m lengths and are 250mm wide. They are a tongue and groove design and easy to fit. They cost approximately £8 to £10 per length and you will usually find that you have a fair bit of wastage, especially from the lengths over the bath. You will also need internal corners and end trims as necessary and they run at about £5 each.
