RECOMMEND ME A SUB £200 PLAYER PLEASE?

Whoops sorry Caps Lock on, didn`t mean to shout.
My parents are new to the world of DVD, they want a player to match their silver coloured Panasonic VCR.
It has to be region free so they can play my discs, or very easily hackable (judging by their prowess on the VCR front). :)
Also must be under £200 and silver as said before.
I think they would prefer brands that they have heard of but I`m sure I could persuade them.
Can you also let me know where to buy it from please?
I`ve got a SCAN 2000 and have been very happy with it after a mistake buying an ALBA :(, I would recommend this to them but branding seems pretty important.
Thanx for you help.

Thanx very much for the info.
I went to the mail uk site and they (my parents) were smitten with the Sony one for £180.
Not bad really seeing as it`s been made multi-region for that price.
Might not have been my choice or yours but thankx for the help, really appreciate it.
