OK, so furher to this thread..................

I've now got the panel strapped on the roof where it will stay for about a week whilst I check results BEFORE I start drilling holes in my pride & joy to fix it permanently!
Here in Cheshire this morning, it's a reasonably bright day with cloudy sunshine and 20 degrees.
My panel is a 185watt 24 volt feeding through a regulator (not MPPT) to two 110 amp (12v) batteries.
Sun behind cloud, I'm getting about 1 amp.
Full sun at 10:30am - 11:00am when it peeked through gaps in the cloud, I got a best of 5.2 amps.
Now, I must admit to being slightly disapointed with this given the size of the panel...............or am I expecting too much ?
