Light weight bass combo

I don't know what that amount equates to in dollars, but I can say the Markbass 121P combo is a killer. It has the LittleMark II head in a 29lb combo with 1x12 and a horn. Gets much louder with more solid lows than expected thanks to 300 watts @ 8ohms. Since they come from Italy, you should be able to find one used pretty cheap.

It is a bit hopefull looking for something light weight with £200 prob push to £250 maybe £300 just after a combo that would sound decent and able to fit easly into a small car, hopeing someone would mention something I haven't considered.
I do like the sound the mark bass, sounds ideal if I can get one for a good price or might just have to pay that bit extra.
 
Nothing new here but has anyone got any tips on a decent lightweight bass combo?
Must be light weight but loud enough to play pubs and small venues. Something around £200 second hand, cheers
Gallien Krueger makes an assortment of light weight combos. I've got a MB210 combo. 350 watts,34lbs., and the speakers are diagonal so it's not that big. I was in an eight pc funk/soul band and never turned the volume above 2. And the tone handles my 5 string with no problem.

Found a couple of GK combos for sale second hand near me.The nb 212 500watt combo and he's wanting £180 for it. They seem to get mixed reviews for sound quality but am really tempted to go for it.sounds like a decent price and light. Be hopeing to get a mixture of sounds and run a good few pedals through it so ill be curious to find out if its any good
