I know local places that sell spurious body panels, but can't help with Nottingham
£80 sounds expensive for a sill, unless it includes the quarter panel.
Add onto the price the cost of getting it welded on, then the finishing to the colour of the car.
Depending how much rot there is, could you not get it cut out and plated?

£80 for a full length sill sounds like a reasonable price to me. Fitting it won't be cheap I imagine.

Bet like macca says 2-door includes part if rear 3/4 panel. The 4-door has the rear arch it fit it to.
If the sills are rotting I'd double check the rest of the car ...
