Dear all,

there is also an interesting translation of Aśvaghoṣa's Buddhacarita 
done by Charles Willemen from the Taisho Tripitaka (T.04.192), published 
in 2009.

His translation is freely distributed by Buddha Dendo Kyokai in the BDK 
Tripitaka Translation Series. See here:

or here the file for download:
