You could try contacting IATE. It's the European Union's database and it might be readily available. It being the EU you might have to wade through a couple of Red Seas of tape though :)

Another good source could be Glosbe, who are trying to build a large dict based on translation memories. According to their about section they allow downloads of the translation memories as well, so try contacting them.
