Perhaps that's why such things cost about twice as much as in the US. ;-)

In the UK it's common to get long warranties on quite low price things - aIt's unlikely that Sony will sell parts, or even a service

Of course they will. But this radio is old enough (I assume) that Sony
no longer stocks parts for it. The manual is probably still available,
but it's likely you'll pay a lot for a photocopy.
Businesses (in general) seem to be increasingly less worried about
breaking the laws that require them to stock service parts.
