Steve,
we are looking for similar, in order to build a render farm.
(dual Pentiums with a gig of RAM - mmmm....)

Try looking at Max Black   http://www.maxblack.co.uk

We have a rackmount box on trial at the moment 
from Max Black - it looks nice, though I haven't
played with it yet.

We also currently have a 2U HP rackmount server in the office,
but it's a big beast and I agree that doesn't meet the
'manufactured in the UK' tag.
