From what i've seen since i bought my donor, your best bets are:
Local papers,
local ad-traders,
classic car buyer / weekly (the newspaper thinggy)
The internet is turning into a a bad place to pick one up (apart from the odd flea bay auction) as there are too many people looking for the same thing on a medium that is too convenient and so the prices are artificially high.
If you put the leg work in and look around I'd say that from experience you can expect to pay about £1500 for a 'reasonable' Vitesse with £2500 / £3000 for an nice one.
There are still loads of tatty sub £1k Heralds and Vitesses around, but you need to know the right people. and they don't tend to be on the web.
