I only payed £300 for mine aswell.
I'm thinking at the moment, with all the bits i need it might be cheaper to buy another SJ and strip it for parts

I've been thinking the same, but the problem is that bits I need that are costly will be buggered on other SJs too.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.
