David,
If thats what you are after keep your eyes open for a 2nd hand Celestron C5, 2nd hand 5"/F10 Mak from Intes Micro or the new Synta made 6" SCT. These scopes are all F10 which makes them a little more versatile IMO than the slower F12 to F15 5" Mak's.
Check out Houghy's 5"/F10 Mak at Lostock if he takes it with him. That is an Intes Micro M500 that he has and they are an outstanding scope.
