I'm running Xray, because it has best parts support over here. But if I lived in UK, I would go for schuey (MI4 is really tempting, but MI3.5 looks good as well). Truth is - Xray is quite tough and I really don't have to buy many spares, so I don't see price increase tragical.
In the end it's allways matter of preference.
