This might fit the bill as far as the wheel and hub are concerned.

For the front light I would get one of the B & M models from  Bike 24 or Starbikes. Both are based in Germany where the prices for lights are far lower than you can get in the UK.

xxcycles will build you up a front dynohub wheel for quite a good price. They have a wide range of options available.

Starbike also have good prices on rims and dynohubs, and will build the wheel for only about $25.
