fook all these high spec cars,too much got to be spent on them.

Ł700-Ł800 for a diff.

That's only a small bit.

Happy with about 350.

Ooooh that's impressive - breaking a 4x4 diff - you can do that with 803s in 4x4 format when only just over 60% of the power is going to the rear - so what do you expect when you are asking 100% of it ?
