Hi do any of you know where I could purchase a brand new imac g5 from many thanks
iPad mini Wi-Fi, iOS 7.0.6
You can't
Apple has not made an iMac with a G5 processor in 8 years
Why do you want such an old computer anyway?

Apple has made a G5 since 2006. You would need to search far and wide to find a new one.
However, new iMacs (from 2014) can be purchased at any Apple Store or they can be ordered from the Online Apple Store.
Finding a new, unused G5 is not going to be easy...but if you want one, you could look into a used G5 such as an iMac, then buy a new logic board from someplace like iFixit.com and install the new logic board and have a machine that runs like it did new. Of course, you cannot go beyond Mac OS X 10.5.8 so you won't have the Mac App Store, iCloud, and on and on.
I Thought they would be cheaper than a new one, and don't look to bad.
If you profile is correct and you have a an iPad Mini then you don't want a G5 iMac because it will not be able to run any software that can sync to the iPad. You will need a new Mac to do that.
Check out the Mac Mini at http://www.apple.com/mac-mini/

They also won't run any modern software because they are PPC machines, not Intel, and that includes OS X after Leopard. Frankly, it would be a big waste of money.
If you want to save a little on a new Mac try Apple's refurbished products.
This is is the iPad forum. Perhaps posting in one of the desktop computer forums may be a better option.
In any case an iMac G5 is the 2006 model of the All in one. Don't think new versions of those exist anywhere.
If you mean the Last gen Mac Pro (looked like G5 Power Mac) which is the predecessor to the new Mac Pro black cylinder: since apple no longer makes that version, but instead is making the New Mac Pros now, its probably going to be difficult to find a new G5. Unless a computer store happens to have left over inventory.
Price would tentatively be lower, but again finding one is going to be very difficult.
Where can I buy a brand new imac g5?
