Just got given a VGC-VA1 and love it , the previous owner no longer has the wireless keyboard, mouse or IR remote set .
Could I purchase this set from anywhere? Is there a compatible set which works with the built in wirless feature?
Which IR remotes work well with this machine? There's lots on the market
Any information is appreciated
Thanks

You can contact VAIO support and purchase the original bundled accessories.

Note that there are tons of wireless desktop mouse keyboard combos out there that will be cheaper and come with their own tiny USB receiver, making them work just as well as the original parts. Make sure you compare the cost of a 3rd party set with the cost of the original parts.
I don't know which 3rd party remote controls will work with the VA Series, but considering that the VA comes with XP Media Centre Edition, I'd try a generic MCE remote.
