Lightweight Roof Tile

OK, following on from previous post on my new "lodge" - I have discovered a ligthweight roof tile which I now plan to place on the roof:

The tiles are much lighter than traditional roof tiles and have a 40 year guarantee. They can also be laid on a 12 degree pitch or greater (luckily mine is 13) so they seem to be more than suitable for what I want. The company also sells matching barge board trims and ridge covers so the end result should be excellent. Price is around £550 all in for my roof which I don't think is bad considering its longevity.
