I'm sure I have a pair. They are in need of a full refurb from the likes of classicar. The last set I had done there came back as new, but at a cost, which I can't recall.
The ones I have are from New Zealand. I paid to transport them after purchasing them. They will not be a bargain.
PM me if you are feeling brave.

Vince Hayden was selling a 'NOS' pair a few months ago for £750.
I've done my own but I spent over £300 on parts alone (pistons, seals, new hangers for the handbrake mech etc) so I would not be surpised if you don't get much change out of £500 for Classicar Auto to restore a pair - they do a beautiful job mind

...there's a restored pair on Ebay at the moment which you have probably seen?
Ye gods, £895 for the pair?

Only fitted to the Elan, unlike the front callipers which were on the Herald.
Rarity value, I guess.
Fwiw, Classicar automotive did a great job on my rear callipers for not much more than it would have cost me to do myself.
