Long shot - Discovery car mp3 CD player from Netto from a couple of years ago...

This is a very long shot, but a couple of years ago there was a post on here about a car radio being sold in Netto that played mp3 CDs as well as normal ones. The brand name was 'Discovery' and it was £49.99 and came with a detachable fascia.
I went out and bought one of these and was very pleased with it. In fact it was so good that one night recently, some thieves decided to jemmy open the door of my car in an attempt to nick it. They didn't manage to extract it from its holdings, but I'd left the fascia on (d'oh!), and they took this, despite it being no use to them and rendering the stereo useless to me.
I'm trying to find out whether I can get a replacement fascia, as this would probably be cheaper than getting a new stereo, and it was a b*gger to fit as well. Problem is I can't find the documentation, and an internet search proves fruitless. I suspect this was a rebadged model as I've seen similar ones being sold in Netto under different names. I've sent an email to Netto, but was wondering if any vintage MSE-ers like me also bought this model and can help me out with manufacturer's details?
