    Nokia service centre, Microsoft will have pulled all the updates and OS's off the servers as it is well out of warranty. However of course any Nokia Windows Phone device updates and OS are still available. A independent phone shop may have a copy though, small chance given the age of the handset.
    SO... now England its the Scots turn to say dont leave the UK, stay in Europe with us in the UK, dont let the tories fool you like they did us with empty lies... You will be leaving the UK aswell as Europe ;)

    Find a shop that still has something that will flash Nokia and has acces to the flash files, iirc the JAF box or Fenix were the main Nokia flashing boxes..
