MFI kitchen doors

I've got an MFI kitchen that has been a pretty good buy in all honesty.
However, I need to get a couple of replacement doors and a drawer, and it would be great if I could get some advice on where to get them.
I think the kitchen style was called "Ascot", but I could be wrong. The fascias have a white plastic coating, and they have a routed (well, moulded!) square with a bump at the top of the doors and the sides of the drawer fronts.
There seems to be a company called MFI now, but they don't have the same range, I'm watching ebay, and I think that one of the manufacturers they used was called Howdens(?), but they don't have it either.
I can't run to getting a new kitchen, and I'd rather get the same doors if I can rather than a complete new set of fronts.
Any advice would be gratefully received.

Mfi and Howdens were originally part of the same company until they separated the 2 parts of the company. You may well find Howdens are worth contacting.Eat vegetables and fear no creditors, rather than eat duck and hide.0

BTW, it looks like I may have got the range wrong, and it's called Conway (not Ascot).0 -

Have you looked the door designs on kitchenandbedroomdoors .co.uk? Annabelle is very similar to the MFI Conway.0

Be very careful buying off eBay, I bought some replacement units for my MFI kitchen and they all turned out to be seconds/returns covered in scratches and with damaged corners. They were all advertised as new but this was just a conn trick used by the supplier. I eventually received a refund off eBay but it still cost me almost £70 to return the damaged items. More than happy to name the seller but a PM would be my preferred choice.0

You also need to be careful when making "best offers" on eBay. If you make an offer and then the seller accepts it I do not think you are covered by the distance selling regulations.0

I think the DSR do not cover auctions. But, if the goods are not as described, then you do have rights e.g. full refund or replacement.Warning: This forum may contain nuts.0
