:%s/[0-9]\{1,\}/^M&/g
Perfect!
Thanks for all the inputs, but this was the first one I tried this morning and it worked, so I didn't check the other solutions - but all the suggestions were much appreciated!

Ok I can't find it...
Where you're doing a search & replace, how do you keep from replacing the characters you're searching for:
I want this:
:1,$s/[0-9]/^M/ --- but this replaces whatever matches in 0-9 with a carriage return - I actually want it to not replace but insert a carriage return after finding the number string and keep the number.
