WHAT IS A GOOD AND CHEAPSIH WAY TO REPLACE AN ASBESTOS GARAGE ROOF?

My corrugated asbestos garage roof is leaking and a bit tatty. What's a good and cheapish way of replacing it without dismantling the whole garage and starting again. I replaced a previous g. roof with bitumen boards from B&Q but they have melted and buckled in the sun, so not too keen on those unless anyone knows if they have improved and worth using.
I know I have to take care when removing and disposing of asbestos.

sorry, its not corolux but it is that green or black corrugated roofing sheet in wickes. the other advantage is that it may be compatable with your existing sheeting in case you want to salvage some of it.

replace it with green corolux from wickes as the fixings will be about the same centres

Have you considered twinwall polycarbonate sheeting?
It's lightweight, easy to cut, and a doddle to install.
I'd look at sources other than B&Q, as they're certainly not cheap when it comes to building materials.
