i can live with £25 - just to try out - don't mind investing in a better guitar later on

OM2, I think you need to think about this a bit more, if you are really determined to take up an instrument do not go for the cheapest you can find (I can't see that you would get any thing worth spending time on for 25 sterling) you will regret later on plus you will be disappointed in the results, get the best you can afford even if you have to save up for another 3 months or so, what type of music do you want to follow?
Classic, Jazz, pop etc, and don't let age put you off a friend of mine took up the Flute as a retirement project he started at 64
