I'd second this having just tried this yesterday. I picked up a Thinkpad X230 for £150. Battery test (looped windowed youtube video running over wi-fi) lasted 3 hours, so that's fine and the laptop itself all seems to work as expected.

Was that from ebay? I'm in the UK too, not sure of the best place to buy used Thinkpads

I got it from an amazon seller, but I think a lot of them sell on eBay too.
