Does anyone know of a European supplier of this Magnolia or beam me onto a

I think what you're really looking for is a Michelia (Magnoliaceae).
The Plant Finder lists only one supplier of Michelia champaca: Reads
Nursery in Norfolk. Their tel. no. is 01508 548395 and their web site
is:

Burncoose Nurseries just outside Redruth in Cornwall specialise in
magnolias (amongst other things). They list M. Campbellii Alba and M.
Soulangeana Alba Superba, but nothing as simple as Alba nor White
Champaca. See their web site at www.burncoose.co.uk or e-mail them at
.
