Anyone any idea how to start looking?
Regards and Thanks

If you are prepared to order from outside Germany, Ffordes in Scotland
https://secure.ffordes.com/index.htm have three R6.2 bodies in stock at the moment, including a silver-chrome ex-demonstration unit for £799 (1025 Euros), which comes complete with a 2-year Leica passport guarantee. Look under 'used equipment' when you log onto their site. Since Scotland is part of the EU, you wouldn't have any problems with customs, and Ffordes prices include UK VAT (at 17.5%) so you are in the clear there as well.
Ffordes have a first class reputation - I've bought numerous items from them both over the counter and by mail order and can confirm that they are very reliable
Ffordes also have a very extensive selection of secondhand R lenses at reasonable prices
