Doesnt seem to meet your specification of "across the pond" but Bell Training Academy does virtually every auto to a touchdown. Been there several times and the only autos not to a touchdown were those associated with simulated enroute engine failures. They do a superb job of this IMHO. As to the value of autos to a touchdown, I buy the logic that the last five feet may not be all that important, but I can tell you that learning what to expect on a touchdown, getting the muscle memory and mindset conditioned, etc is something I have found quite valuable and an eyeopener.
