A new one in pounds sterling is £212.62 inc. UK VAT - but they don't do a bush - it's a new strut - so if you are determined you will have to experiment.

If you can ascertain dimensions of the bush, you could try looking here:

Although an Australian site, their products are available worldwide. I have used them to replace hopeless Toyota ARB originals.

Shame that they're showing out of stock.
