Radiator gone - good source of replacements?

Merry Christmas from my X5. It's gift to me at the most expensive time of year is a blown radiator. I've been topping up for ages and finally found the core is soaked with blue liquid (antifreeze) at the bottom. So can anyone suggest a sensibly priced source for a replacement? ECP weren't as cheap as I remembered.
Thanks.

ECP would be my choice.
£170.40 for my prefacelift 3.0d with a further 25% using the code UKPAS25 = £127.80.
Edit - I've used this lot when I bought some brakes for the Jag. Bit cheaper -

Took delivery today of a rad from Autokool for £98. Looks ok so just got to pluck up courage to get out there in the damp cold and swap it out.
