The first thing you ought to do is join the PFA and root out a group near you.
Alternatively, another way to build "cheap" hours is to forget the £100+/hour rental approach and buy a cheap PFA aeroplane.
A VP1 or a Fred can be had for around the £2-2.5k mark. Burning Mogas at about 2gph for a cruise of around 60 knots you don't get far but it's not distance you're measuring is it! Due to their limited range you will visit a lot of airfields thus adding to the experience side of things. Also a Biggles leather jacket is compulsory as they are open cockpit aeroplanes.
When you have built up sufficient hours you can sell the aeroplane on for pretty much what you paid for it so no net loss there.
Your insurance and maintenance will be around £1,000 pa and your direct costs around £20/hour. Thus 200 hours / year will cost you £5,000 this way but it'll cost you £20,000 renting at £100/hour........
These areoplanes ain't fast and they ain't pretty but the only cheaper SEP flying is as an instructor
