Sources for solar panels and leisure batteries

Having made the off grid shed version 1 I now want to make version 2.

So can anyone suggest sources for solar panels and leisure batteries (and for that matter solar charge controllers). This version should be about 80W - 100W of panels and something about about 12V 70Ah for the batteries.

Fleabay has 100w solar panels here's one. There's quite a choice around the £100/100w mark.
