Hi. I'm doing the exact same thing right now. I set a target of £300 too just to see if it was possible. Well, I nearly did it! Second hand kit for £100. New tranny for £60. New motor for £45. New servo for £20. New Charger from China for £16. New 120A Speedo from China for £50. Just the LiPo's to get and that's all the basics.
All these bits are far from top of the range, but there is no reason why this package shouldn't be competitive. I think it'll end up costing about £350 when I'm done.
Hope this helps.
Jimmy
