Payday's looming and I want some new forks.

I've want some Marzocchi mx pros or Rock Shox Psylos but they both seem to be disc only (I can’t afford disc's too).

The only forks I can find for v's are Manitou’s or duke race, but I've read mixed reviews about the dukes. Anyone know what the Manitou black elites or Skareb elites are like?
Any advice is much appreciated; I’ve got about £300 to spend.
Thanks

If you really have about £300 to spend, how about some MX comps for about £160, and a front disc + wheel for around another £140?

04 MX comps will take v-brakes. The pros will also as they use the same lowers.
