For that kind of money I'd really consider sawing up a bit more and get a new TDS winch. This includes snatchblock, Albright-style solenoid and wire rope. It's not that the £300 is totally way off... But considering price of a new one and that you have to spend around £150 on winch rope, makes it a bit uninteresting i my opinion :)

Perhaps you should give Goodwinch a call, and hear if they have something on offer at Donnington :)
