100 gbp isn't going to get you very far, I'm afraid.  On estimate, you're looking at around 300-400 to get it looking and running really good.  I suggest to start looking for a P5 1260 or BlizzardPPC.  They're not so easy to find, but they do crop up every now and again.  That'll set you back a cool 200 right there.  The next biggie is PCI in the form of a Mediator.  Software Hut and Amigakit both have them in stock.  Thats another bill, at least..

Once you get those two essential items out of the way, then you'll naturally want more.  :)  You can really go kinda nuts upgrading Amigas..  I mean you have Zorro slots, PCI slot, multiple clockports, even a cardslot!  You could have three of everything if you really wanted to..  Its only really limited if you are married.   Welcome to the wonderful (and expensive) world of classic Amiga.
