You could look around for shops like uselinux.co.uk near you. I believe distrowatch.com rotates ads for several.

Why not load your wifi drivers from the install cd and just install like normal? If that doesn't work, try booting from a knoppix cd and do the install from that. They have good wifi support in that.
