    firstly check these out http://www.firstlightoptics.com/skywatcher-quattro-f4/skywatcher-quattro-f4-imaging-newtonian.html i had one and liked it very much. 2nd buying a mount from here or http://www.astrobuysell.com/uk/propview.php is fine. ideally you would need a HEQ6 by the time you add imaging equipment the weight adds up. do you have any ideas on what imaging equipment you are likey to be using.

      Quite a day for you then saying goodbye to the Dob and picking up new kit. Did manage to pick up the RC6 as well? If so you definately got a lot done in your day!

      Well done Dan, I am sure that is a huge monkey off your back, regardless of how good the scope is. Can't believe how long it has taken for you to move it on.

      Good luck with your full on weekend Dan :) It should be quite interesting from what you've said. You'll have to let me know how it goes with the guy with the two domes! who's buying your Dob.
