    Shop around, that sounds dear to me. I get custom made windscreens for trucks for less than that. Plastics would be dearer than glass in my experience.

    CAMS require a Lexan windscreen in those tin tops for which a laminated windscreen is not available.

    Even on a farm vehicle you might have to use the wipers and as soon as you do the perspex will be scratched - after a couple of times you will not be able to see out of it.

    A new windscreen must only be about $200 (my freelander is only $230 fitted) so you should be able to get one from a wrecker pretty cheap - probably cheaper than buying perspex or flat laminated glass cut to shape.

    Used to have a business plastic welding and making things out of perspex etc. As mentioned above you won't want to use perspex for a wind screen lexen or polycarbonate(same thing) would be better however it scratches easy and is very expensive.
