If you have an Australian CPL with IR then to get a JAR CPL and IR you'll have to do:
JAR class one medical at Gatwick. ~£200. (£411 if no ICAO class 1)
14 JAR ATPL exams and theory. ~£700 for the exam fees. Budget £2,000 for the theory. I'd look at Bristol Ground School distance learning.
Since you have an ICAO IR then you just have to do a min of 15 hours for the conversion. No idea what that would cost. Budget £3-5,000. Possibly some other flying in there for the CPL bit.
Allow for the MCC £2,000 and these days, £15,000 for a type rating.

I don't know of any one in the UK currently doing JAR CPL exams. Most just go straight onto the ATPL because that combines the CPL and IR theory too.
