Voodoo 29er for £450 and 10% off by joining British Cycling, should pay for itself.

Decent enough spec for the £, slightly over budget but they do a cheaper model too.

No experience of this, but looks like a bargain

Sign up for the halford emails, they do regular 10% off for a couple of hours every couple of weeks, that and the 10% off instore with a British cycling and more via quidco, I'd be looking at the extremely well rated Voodoo Bizango.
Ok so it maybe a little more than £450, but it'll be a better bike for it.

That said, lot of these Bizango's ebay, and if you ignore the chancers trying for £450+, there's regularly now bikes coming up around £350-£400, which are probably have little or no use (bike to work scheme purchases).
