Look at Montane.

Or the most breathable cycling jacket you can get is a cycling cape (so long as you use mudguards). Don't see many of them these days though.

+1 for Montane.
I got an old design Velocity DT for £54. It's lightweight packs small and is the most breathable jacket I've had and I sweat like a pig. Not tried an Event jacket BTW.

Madison Pursuit. Have a look on eBay for them. Best jacket I've had - same quality as jackets twice it's price.

Try a Royal Racing Camo jacket. I picked mine up for £34(Je james) and the the good thing is that they do man sizes.

Every second post I make seems to be in support of montane at the moment - i've got an old style velocity DT and its a really good jacket for the reasons Simon has already picked up, there are some bargains out there if you shop around for them - mine came off a well-known auction site.

Look in TK Maxx. They had some really nice Scott waterproof jackets for £40 - sizes were all less than XL so not for me, but your local store might be different. Some Nike, Iron Man and other stuff in there at the mo.
