Have you tried ebay, Gumtree or Preloved, you might be in luck.

I believe there is a shortage of 6Kg Calor bottles nationwide. You could try your local tip.
One other tip, if you intend using your van in the winter months, try to get the red ones, they are propane and work when when it gets cold, the blue ones are butane and don't work well at temperatures below 5 degrees C.
Note that they have different connections so you may need to swap the end connection but you may be lucky and the old one was red.

I would have thought that the most obvious place to check first is on the Calor website and click on 'Find a retailer' in the top right hand corner. I'm sure you can find a stockist that sells 6 kg. gas bottles within a 100 mile radius.
Calor Website

Dave.
Calor's 6 kg are Propane, as said Red.
The same bottle size with blue paint and different connector is their
7kg Butane, it is a denser LPG.
Flo-gas, do a dead ringer for the Calor 6 kg Propane; but the bottles are not intertradable.
However, the building trade frequently use Flo-gas so these are extensively available at builders merchants.
Flo-gas web site gives the cylinder dealer network, IMO it is suprisingly extensive.
