Bikes you recommend.........?

Depends entirely on what you're doing with it...for 200 quid I'm uming that it's nothing too serious. Good MTB brands for which you get good bang for your buck (good frames, mid end components - you're not going to get anything too flash - workable forks and drivetrain) include Giant; GT (as mentioned); Trek and Norco. If you actually intend to take the thing onto proper singletrack and aim to progress as a rider, then I'd break the budget and spend around the 500 pound mark and get something like a Giant XTC or Norco Kokanee. These are great bikes that are lightweight, trail ready and have great components. Of course you can always look into 2nd hand bikes, which with your budget will get you something pretty good - best to get someone who knows what they're looking at to help you with any 2nd hand purchase though. Hope that helps mate.
