Need a cream coloured bath?

Hi folks,

Our child has cracked the existing bath which is over 25 years old. Is was made of plastic (is that acrylic?) and the bottom of it was always very flexible anyway so it was only a matter of time before it went.

Anyway would like to get a new stronger one without going to a huge amount of expense. The bath length is 165 x 70 wide by 54 cms deep.

only the front of the bath will be visible as it will be sandwiched in between walk in shower and wall at both ends.

I know that getting a cream one will be difficult, tiles are near that colour as well, and the tiles are just tiled up to the start of wash hand basin and toilet, so it would be an expensive job if we had to replace everything, say buy a whole bathroom suite then find it wouldn't fit with the tiles etc. could then cost up to £2000 maybe to sort out the whole bathroom.

I have been looking at some online retailers such as Victoria plumbing etc to get a bath, but is seems its difficult to get a cream coloured bath.

Any advice or ideas most welcome.

Thank you very much.
