What spec were you looking at? This is what I have:

2 x Graphite Core 400 - Dual Core P4 3.0GHz 2048Mb RAM 1x120Gb SATA HDD
2 x Windows 2003 Web Edition (Lease Option)
1 x Dedicated Cisco PIX 501 Firewall
400GB Dedicated High Grade Bandwidth per month
No managed backup (DIY on that with each server backing the other up)

Total £366+vat per month, no setup fees

I asked for the cheapest one and this is it.

Graphite Core 300 - Celeron D 2.66GHz 1024Mb RAM 1x80Gb SATA HDD - Linux
Managed Firewall
Managed Daily Backup
100Gb Dedicated Bandwidth per month

£197+vat + £199 set up

Its a cases of haggaling, I was orginally quoted £197 for the Graphite Core 300 but managed to get this upgraded to the 400 and the price down to £174.50 per month. I've got two servers though so might have got some discount there. I'll PM you my contact at UKFast, hopefully he can improve on your current quote.

Also bear in mind it takes 3-5 working days to get the server online.
