It depends on how clean you expect it cut as to how much you want to spend? I have a cheap chinese cut40 £160-200 that makes clean cuts up to 3mm any thing over that and a 9" grinder does a better job. If you want laser cut clean then your looking at some thing like a hypertherm 45 which are around £1600-2000 new.

You also need to consider the price of consumables, my Cebora cutter is expensive in this respect.
