Hi Dean,
Thanks very much for your input. I did wonder about the GSO eyepieces as they seem very cheap but look like quite good quality and it seems Andrews don't really sell rubbish.
I just re-read this old review and feel the Heritage 130 with a couple of eye pieces is the way to go. -

Regarding the low height I don't think think the 5" Dobbie will be a hassle, I've either got the tray back of a ute, milk crate or a camp table which should serve nicely.
I'm thinking having this tiny scope might be handy in years to come, because I can see the next scope being a lot bigger (8"+) and while no doubt a lot better, it'll be more hassle to lug and from others comments I can imagine the 5" might still come along for the odd spot of casual observing
