Mini Tower or mount with encoders/GOTO

Looking for something with GOTO or encoders as I am rubbish at finding stuff! In a perfect world I'd get something like a T-Rex as I'm happy with alt-az non-tracking mounts, but since they are heavy, expensive and hard to find, I'm setting my sights a bit lower.

Being more realistic, first choice is an Ioptron Mini Tower (not the Pro) as long as it's in 100% working order. May consider an HEQ5-Pro but not such a fan of equatorial mounts.

Open to other suggestions as I may not have considered all the options. The mount must be capable of carrying my 110mm f/7 refractor.

Note that I considered adding Argo Navis to my Skytee 2 but this would cost as much as the above mounts so I've discounted this idea.

Thanks

Morton
