    looking for halogen bulbs, any reasonable places to buy or are LED options better,
    Philips 40W 230V, long with small thread connection,
    like this

    What kind of hours are these used, it will be hard to get a good price on that form factor for the simple reason of supply and demand, might be cheaper in the long run to change the fitting.

    Buy them from eBay look on the UK ebay site for 'free worldwide delivery' they will come from china so they don't care if they are going here or the UK. Just message the seller first to ask.

    You won't do any better than that price wise. And that should actually be more light than the philips one you linked to which is 950candela at 25degrees. The ikea bulb looks to have a fresnel lens so you'll have a wider pattern.
