As per title - looking for anything 2003 - 2007 model (welded disc mount, horizontal drop-outs) or the later 2008 - 2012 model (vertical drop-outs and EBB) but only with square chainstays.

Re:

That's a great link showing the differences. I have what appears to be a mk2 which I am going to have powdercoated before deciding it's future.
 
Obviously barring material changes, HT/ST angles, specs for tyres and fork capability etc, main structural changes are:

1 =bolt on disc brake adaptor, horiz DO, V brake bosses, 26.8 or 27.3 SP. (US made)
2 = same but 27.2 SP + (other differences?!)
3= dropped V brake mounts, HT gusset, 30.9 SP, replaceable Der hanger
4 = (big changes to frame design/angles over classic models) vertical DO, EBB, no V bosses. Last models dropped the square chainstays IIRC.
5 = eekk, WTF.

Not sure if it applies to later models but early US (mine) has the last two EDIT - first two digits as year.

Still, absolutely loving mine - posted a while back on here, link below - set-up different now but still going very strong:
