Just an update for those that contributed and thank you for the opinions and advice to assist - much appreciated.
I am getting a Mewlon 210. A fellow IIS member helped with some parts I was after already so a good start. Scope is on order so I am looking forward to this - if it produces visual images better than the Intes MK67 and the Meade LX200 8 inch ACF then I will be very happy.
Mount wise .. well AZEQ6 will have to do for now, although I watch with interest the EM200 Temma 3 mount due out very soon (has had a delay). I had an option for an EM200 Temma-2M but after researching this if it were a good price then no worries but the option I had available was far too expensive given the new mounts are coming out. In some respects new is good, sometimes second hand is good for the price reduction. Built in wifi means no need for SkyFi3 but will go for a Sky Safari given the amount of recommendations it is a little hard to ignore. Have an iPad so all good.
Trying to source some camera adapters Wide T Mounts and a few adapters to match the Tak diagrams, bearing in mind the difference between the focuser I have and the Tak R&P one.
Time now to honour the deal with the boss about space and start thinking of what has to go
