Ask at "Splitterz" or "Spooky" someone's bound to have a few going spare.
Ask the long haired hippy (Techno-hippy), Deno or Al from Splitterz, they're bound to know someone.

just to let people know you can't fit bmw e34 535i calipers coz there's not enough room between the caliper mounts with 300mm disc's

Worth knowing-I'm thinking of putting on g60 288mm 0r 280mm disc (cant remember exact size) with catching calipers-any oone tryed this? the advantage I can see is that they are the same stud pateren to start with.

quick update, flywheel bolts right size (manual) fitted with flywheel and new clutch plate vw 228mm (ordered from richard- great service as always).
going to go for two radiators mounted in the rear sides ozzie style (golf rads). then if i need to stick them underneath or add third rad underneath.
cooling circuit seems ok, just need to workout the take off points.

Fair play and I certainly hear you having got mine on the road after quite a long and slow restore I took it off the road again to revise the steering.. nearly a year has passed and I've done about 40 miles !!! Hopefully back on road next week with revised steering set up and air on the front 
Kids hey can't live with um....
Keep it up
