Not a chance.. The best you can do is hope one appears to fit you on ebay.uk. but thats not really likely to happen. They do turn up on ebay.com - the american site. frequently - second hand. but - if you want new. You'll have to order it from the States and then pay customs and VAT when it arrives. The only way round that is if you have friends or relatives in America who can accept delivery on your behalf then send it to you marked as a 'Gift' - you can request this as a favour from the seller if you were to go for a second hander.

Aerostich themselves refuse point blank to send their products marked as either a 'gift' or as a 'sample'.

I know people who have bought them and really rate them - but for similar money you could buy a 'Rukka' suit and have their 5yr guarantee.. plus be able to use their 'loan scheme' if anything you bought had a problem. personally that is the route I went down.. tried on Rukka gear here in the UK and then shamelessly ordered it from germany and saved a packet. Not the same as a 'Stitch. but in many ways far superior... It must be noted 'Aerostitch' aren't exactly know for innovation. their gear is definitely old fashioned - materials technology has moved the goalposts a long way - but 'Aerosticth' are firmly stuck in a rut.
