I am debating if I should just get BCD and Regs and buy a drysuit of somebody else, the cyclinder is proably going to be best to hire then to buy after maintenance costs? I dunno? *-)

OK, can't offer advice about 0%, I was fortunate to be able to afford it all in one go, cash (I'm not rich, i'd just got a back pay settlement from work) but this list is pretty much the same as the gear I started with! I still use most of it and am very happy with it too! I've moved onto wing and twins now so the BCD is sitting around my spare room and i rarely use the 15ltr but it's still good kit!

I'm not sure about the price though, I got my suit from ROHO along with a computer and the rest of the kit from SDS in Sheffield, I may be wrong (it's late and I don't feel like ferreting around my spare room for the receipts) but i'm sure that I didn't pay that much.

If you don't need 0% it maybe better to shop around for the component parts of your list, after all there's no such thing as a free lunch (for lunch read 0%finance package!)

Just my 2p
