I'm very close to trading in my B2R for an SVT 5 Pro but before I do I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.

I'm happy with my B2R but ave always wanted an SVT, I've played through an SVT 2 and loved it, how close to that will I get with the 5?

Also how hard to come by are the footswitches?

I believe the SVT2 and SVT5 have the same pre-amp, but the 2 is valve power stage and 5 is solid state. If you weren't pushing the SVT2 to high volumes then you'll probably get a similar sound out of the SVT5. If you liked the sound of a cranked SVT2 then you'll probably miss a lot of the warmth of the valve power stage.
