An e21 isn't rare or old enough to warrant custom glass from Pilkington I don't think.
I'm pretty sure I've heard of people just ringing up Autoglass (or AA or similar) and asking them to buy the glass for 1970s-80's
cars.

As above would have thought New ones still in supply, or alternative one from a breaker, just make sure its perfect as any chips and cracks will
significantly increase chance of breaking it when fitting

cheers that confirms we can still get one at least - I suppose we'll just need to see if they'll sell one direct to us and cut out the
middle man 
btw we would have been happy with a good one from the scrapyard, but there just arn't any E21's in the scrapyards up here 
(we are talking about a car they stopped making in 1983 ! )
