Hankook Ventus Prime.

Absolutely spot on tyre mate.

Or the Optimo. Both are great in the wet

Toyo's are very soft, and uniroyals seemed ok to me, but the best I have had by far are the current Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's - good luck finding them though Gav

They are, price wise. Great tyre for the money though, I had them on my Corsa and they performed very well.
