Dunford Senior at Vintage A7 services sells them.
Mine were bottoming out over bumps, but level, in other words equally saggy.
I replaced them and the car sat about 40MM higher and hasn't bottomed out since.
There are lots of bits of advice here about how to get the old ones out. The method that worked for me was to loosen the bolts and then drive around for a couple of miles bouncing as is on a hill climb. Result was that they slipped out no problem.

Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think!
