I'm a massive fan of the Boardman MTBs, if you stack up the discounts you can get them absurdly cheap. All told my 29er was well under £500, and that's with SRAM GX 1x11, RockShox fork, Mavic rims, SRAM hydraulic disk brakes, about 12kg. If I had to change anything I'd get a dropper post and maybe an offset headset and a 140mm fork or something, but it rides really well as it is.
Definitely get the Rockhopper, neo-retro 26" MTB/dirt tourer/monstercross is the way! They're cheap and still ride so well. Is it a rigid fork?
