You gotta be a serious hobbyist to pay £600 for a scope. :~
I have an old (ancient?) Hitachi V-355 scope. It's two channel, analog, no storage, uses a coiled up cable as a delay line to see the trigger! 
Works like a champ. I've got fancy 1GHz digital storage scopes at work and I prefer my Hitachi.
When I bought it new (around 1985), it cost me about $600 US. What that is today according to the "online inflation calculator" is $1279 US ....WOW!
