Try RS,

or maplin, you could use this to strip for the colours you need depending on its use as its only good upto 8amps

but it depends how much you really need tho, a better idea if your splicing a loom or whatever, get a second hand loom and take it apart for the colours and lengths you need

Most good automotive electrical outfits will sell you wire by the metre.

Another option is Vehicle Wiring Products - google them - most recommended.

Another one is Auto Electrics Supplies - who do sell by the metre.

RS don't. The sell by the reel, and they don't do much of a range of automotive thinwall wire.

lol tbh there was no mention of its intended use but knowing RS you'l end up with a giant pallet all in one colour like this

Dont think so, VWP are based in Ilkeston Derbyshire and Pole Volt is in Holmes Chapel, Cheshire.
All the lads that worked there were Notts born and bred, dont think any of them would up and leave.
