Also worth knowing (though I suspect you'll be going down the DIY route) is that Classicar Automotive do a really great job of refurbing calipers - they come back as new (inc. re plating of the outer surfaces). I sent them my 3.2 fronts a couple of years ago and they came back within a couple of day...
