G, how about this from Argos
http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3321377.htm
Not sure if the are any good, but at 199 it is cheap, and given its Argos, you can buy it, see if it will fit, and if it turns out its useless, take it back!

No question: Brompton. Quality machine, good to ride, robust and comfortable. One fits behind the seat in a Pup, or did until it was crashed - the Pup not the Brompton unfortunately. Get the kevlar tyres to remove the risk of punctures and they last for ever. I was so impressed after miles & miles of commuting and carrying it on the train, that I bought a second for my wife and the two Bromptons fit in the storage locker of the camper.
They are pricey but quality costs, and if you decide to sell later it will have retained it's value.
Exactly what you need for independant transport when on detachment with the 146! I took mine on the Herc (aahh! Snoopy) to Ascension and it was great fun.

I have the Dahon Vitesse D7 (the alloy version) 20 inc wheels, 7 gears. Had it for 4 years now. Not as jazzy as the Brompton in terms of it's folding mechanisim but the ride is excellent.
