I'd say so. Honestly it's a nice bit of willow, shocked that it hasn't gone yet.

Just waiting to see if Helios is still alive, if not I'll be all over that bad boy like Samit Patel on cake.

nearly as good as the Notts saying - that he bats with his right hand, bowls with his left and eats with both!

I'd strongly suggest you have a look at the forum sponsors and see what they have on offer. From there narrow down your selection to what you are looking for and chose from there.  You won't go far wrong, and most of the sponsors will be happy to give you some advice and guidence.  Failing that look in the for sale section, or as others have suggested go for Ryan's custom made.

Oh and don't write in red on your first forum post!

Welcome to the forum anyway!

There is no easy answer to your question - most of the sponsors no doubt could provide you with a blinding bat full of great performance! So that is not the issue!
If you know what kind of profile you like then that would be helpful!
Write down what weight you pefer, then kind of pickup, the middle position and the full spec of the kind of bat you're looking for - this will give you a checklist to go by! Your budget of 200 quid is enough to get you a superb bat!!
SAF do a fantastic bat, as do others on here. So it needs a decision you need to make. The last thing you need is for you to buy something else and still be thinking about that SAF Mechten you wanted!!!
So take your time and think carefully - you have a while until the season starts after all!

With 200 squids to spend, the world is definitely your lobster.
