Not sure of your stature - S & M available;
I bought one of these a month ago and it's by far the most fun and quickest bike I've ridden. I bought some 120mm Fox 34 Performance Elites off CRC for £360, sold the Reba's for £200 so pretty chuffed with that upgrade for £160.
No proprietary stuff like Cannondale Scalpel or Specialized Epic Evo.https://www.evanscycles.com/kona-hei-hei-race-deluxe-2017-mountain-bike-EV359449 - 2 year old model buy same frame as 2019 for £1899!! Plenty of change for new forks and a dropper if that's your thing.
https://www.evanscycles.com/kona-hei-hei-cr-dl-2019-mountain-bike-EV354582 2019 model,same frame. Extra 20mm on the front for £4299 (and a dropper)

Think it's finally time to treat myself to an actual new off the peg mtb that I can enjoy barely riding while I think up excuses.
Approx 3k budget, 29er, 120-140mm travel... What do you buy?
My preferred type of riding is xc racing, but I actually do very little of that in the grand scheme of things. It's mostly days out around Surrey, and I've a trip or two planned to the pyrenees between now and end of year.
I'm leaning towards a carbon trail bike at the minute.
