Phil,

£1130 (plus about £50 for the $79 hybrid option) is a great deal in the UK.

What's their lead time?

As I'm planning a hand-collection in the US, I'd forgotten about local US taxes, which adds 7% in Georgia, so all in I'd only save £100 by importing it myself (and thats with 10% discount off list AND ZERO shipping, hand carried in person), on a major purchase I don't think that £100 is enough saving considering the risk of import duty if my brother get collared and lack of local backup if there are any problems.

I would prefer to buy it in the UK - are you up for it?
