Any one know where to buy a fuel tank to fit under bonnet having problems  finding one centre filler would be great but can get it relocated if required

You could try volksmagic in West Midlands or buy new from one of the VW parts suppliers.
I'm in my buggy,
It's raining,
I really don't care.

Flatlands do them with a centre filler!

Bought a standard tank from GSF and then took it to a radiator repair company who moved the filler to where I needed it and pressure tested their work.

You could buy from flatlands (and this is one instance where they work out cheaper), but getting it custom done, you get the filler exactly where you want it.

As Shaggy says, Volksmagic can supply a standard or custom tank as required.

What buggy is it for as you may need to have the front corners altered too.

As well as front corner changes. I had to make clearance for steering rods\dampers. Involved a bit of bottom bashing. (May only apply to Manx)
