Jconder your path isn't available now since brittish pound is higher now than before.
As to authorized brittish dealer, you should send your turntable(realy nothing should happen to it but still...) to UK for the service if anything does happen.
I own Gyro SE with Incognito RB300 arm and spent on that deal a-bit above $2k.
It is also possible to use Michell with stock Rega arm(doesn't have to be top of the line RB1000) but the modified arm brings lots of unexpected differences when you will compare.
Also VPI HW19 MK2 with JMW-10 will bring you to the analogue heaven that no $10k cd-player or digital separates will ever beat.
