I'd like to get a longer lens for motorsport in the 400 or 500mm range, but it needs to be cheap, around £200-£250 mark. Am I or could I find something in this price range?
Anything in that price range will be utter rubbish. Get the best 300mm zoom you can afford and crop.

Even secondhand?
Pete.Rush has one in the classifieds.
If you are (hoping) earning money from your shoots, perhaps you could hire lenses for the days that you require them?
A 3-day hire (would cover the weekend?) from StewartR (lensesforhire.co.uk) of the Canon 100-400 IS would appear to be £43 + deliveries (or they do pickup in Maidenhead).
Don't know how much you can make in a weekend?
[hopefully putting specifics into a message doesn't contravene advertising rules on the forum? I don't get anything for this]
Would this be any cop?

I know it's different to the spec. I've put in the thread title but would it represent a significant improvement over my current EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS lens?
Sorry to keep asking questions! :bonk:

That's the lens I mentioned after your orginal post.
Kerso is doing them for £350 + p+p
