I dont know about stores across the pond but the owner of the forum, crankwalk, has a thread for spare parts. http://www.intimidatorowners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5

Dean should chime in & know better since he is from the UK.

Only people I'm aware of that will supply timmy spares in the UK are LIPS, and then they'll just order them in from the sates - they don't hold stock for any model other than the victory. They can however supply Dow 33 and 55 if you ring them. Triflow for the bolt can be bought easily over ebay international.
I'm UK based, and use Crankwalk for all spares - he charges a reasonable price, and you'll get your bits in a fortnight. For oring kits, Oring momkey (google it) will also supply to the UK, and are very handy.

I don't know how near Yorkshire this is, but...Univar (http://www.univarsc.com/lubricants&P.Size=166&Sort=3) sells both Molykote 33 (http://www.univarsc.com/molykote-33-light-extreme-low-temperature--bearing-grease-white-100g-33LI100) and Molykote 55 (http://www.univarsc.com/molykote-55-oring-grease-offwhite-100g-55M100). You may be able to source it cheaper from a different chemical supplier. Have you tried Fat Bob's Paintball (http://www.fatbobspaintball.co.uk/) in Yorkshire to see if he can get you what you need? Even though he doesn't list Bob Long as a brand he carries doesn't mean he can't acquire what you want or he may know a man who can. Just an idea.

Seriously dude, you'll not find anyone who'll keep timmy parts in the UK. We're something of a rare breed over here in the UK.

Yes LiPS can get BL parts, but they have to order them in, and god knows how long they take to deliver and what mark-up LiPS put on the order.

crankwalk is your best bet if you want to start getting o-ring kits and wiring harness/eyes. He is THE man, with great shipping even for international shipping fees.

General parts I would suggest keeping an eye out on the BST section here at IOG, or even at other forums. I've even shopped at eBay for parts. But finding people willing to ship internationally to the UK, is sometimes challenging.

Lube, can be purchased from the sources already named.

Where in Yorkshire are you? I'm in Bradford. If you have a problem, send me a PM, and I can give you my number. I may be able to lend you some parts to get it fixed in the short term until your spares arrive (should you order some). If you're unfamiliar with timmy's, I may be able to give you some schooling/tech tips.

LMK...
