10" Goto Skywatcher collapsable mount. Spend the last $1k on some nice accessories or eyepieces. It will render all the other scopes mentioned for visual observation... pointless. It goes deeper, it gives brighter views, surprisingly compact - easily fits into a small car, gives great planetary views thanks to its resolution, and tracks them.
In Sydney it can see as deep as mag 9 Globs, maybe mag 10 depending on conditions. Thanks to goto you wont even have trouble finding them.
Buy an app for your smart phone to find objects, like Sky Safari Pro and you will see more of the night sky then you have ever seen before.
It really comes into its own when you pack it up and take it to a dark sky.
