As you can see from the other picture, there was rust, where the shaft broke, indicating that the initial damage was made by the car, despite the low torque. Maybe because the nut wasn't tight enough allowing some movement and maximizing the stress on the shaft?

maybe so.. but that part of the cv shouldn't be loaded at all during the tighting operation

If I do get them from the guy eventually, you can have my CV joints if you pay for shipping. After all, you are the one who provided the link.

I think that they'll be expensive esp. shipping - why not try breakers - there should be a few knocking about.

I have found these. I have send them an email, about shipping costs. I'll ask about shipping with TNT too. I got a J's CF snorkle from Canada, with TNT and it was delivered at my door, no Customs fees at all
