I have had quite a bit of success with this when I built a model box from Corflute plastic (same stuff that is used by pollies and real estate agents for signs) Plastic Adhesive

It actually worked better than my dubious expectations and it even managed to bond the Corflute plastic to aluminium channel. I did a few tests for peel and shear and was quite impressed that something actually performed as advertised. The instructions on the package were followed scrupulously btw.

I am in Australia but surely you have an equivalent in the U.K.?
