have you had a look in B & Q depots

I got a "SIPS" 10" sliding compound mitre saw from them last year for around £90
Not a tradesmans tool, but has had a lot of hard work, and still going strong
Cuts around 3" -75mm deep and 12" -300mm wide

Rexnord are good, the brand B&Q used to sell before they went for a cheaper brand,

Avoid wolf, I didn't and regret it, still use the none sliding rexnord for anything that matters, (they do do sliding saws too) ;)

Read the nineteen reviews for the Erbauer ERB238MSW ,on the Screwfix website, (£140)

Whichever saw you choose buy a decent quality blade as you won't get a decent blade on a budget saw so go for a Freud blade but steer clear of De-Walt,Makita blades as you pay a premium for the name.

Make sure you get the correct blade for crosscutting and not a ripping blade and remember the more teeth the finer the cut.
