Hi Duncan,

Good news is your finance is approved :)
Now decision making which one?
Been there, done that :) I opted for 12" Bintel solid tube Dob which is GSO anyway.

Hope this threads will help you:

duncan ive just bought a 8"skywatcher coll dob as a second to take camping and star parties i was very impressed with the quality what ever part of the scope is not painted it it stainless steel the engineering that has gone into the collapsible side of it is of highest quality takes 1 min to set up and colliminate.i also went for the coll it is easier to transport then the standard dob overall the value for money ie outstanding
