I had the same question a couple of months back! FWIW ended up with the latest P line secondhand (third but very close to new condition tbh) for 30% discount. Which seemed like a ‘good price’ as I wanted 4 gears, and other recent improvements. I didn’t want to take on a whole project. The P line is lovely (still miss my Ni edition though, probably best finish for steel framed Brompton) but there is plenty room for improvements (grips, rear triangle protector, saddle, seatpost, pedals, etc) if you want to tweak things

Hello Brompton people, I'm still waiting for the greenlight / right opportunity to get involved and bag a Brompton - motivation would be to get something and then upgrade it to be as light and as marvellous as possible... what's the current thinking on sweetspot of price and viability for achieving that? i.e., do I just bite the bullet and buy a P Line and be done with it, or go secondhand and work up from there?
Edit - to remove link to something that's actually not as good as I first thought - question still stands though!
