Go on the nilfisk outlet site. I paid £250 for a unit normally retailing at £500. They have some good deals. Really solid units. Blow karcher out the water
Another one who has a Nikfisk. What can I say, it shoots out a very high pressure jet of water and is reliable. Wasn’t expensive either.
After 2 Karchers that died within a couple of years, I went with the recommendations here for for the Nilfisk.

It's still going strong a few years later and appears to be made of much stronger parts than Karcher. I used it today to clean some paving and my BBQ, its very powerful.
Another vote for Nilfisk. All the pump components are brass/ alloy unlike the cheaper Karchers which use some plastic components
I bought a Nilfisk about ten years ago. I seem to recall that it was on offer at Argos, and cost me around £60.
As I intended to use it primarily for car cleaning, I didn't need anything particularly powerful. It's been used regularly, and I intend to replace it with a Kranzle when it eventually fails, but it won't, and insists on providing regular reliable service.
Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.
Buy cheap buy many times.
I bought Karcher X range that lasted 10 years, cleaning three cars in all weathers combined with patio & drive cleaning.
Wickes had it on offer for £169 last year so grabbed another as my original one was battered & scruffy.
Another vote for Nilfisk. I've had my current one for about 12 years and still works fine, though last time I took it out it seems to be impacted by limescale buildup - and is constantly pulsing. So will investigate...
Had 2 similar priced Karchers before, and neither lasted more than 3 years.
There might be a few people looking for the cheaper option...I bought this one recently...

With a discount code, it came out at £55. Probably not the most powerful but for the occasional car-wash, perfect for my needs and the cheapest I found by a long shot.
I also saw that screwfix had a more powerful 'Titan' jetwasher for £79.99 which seemed good value for the specification. Not tried this one but I have never had an issue with Titan budget products before and rate them.
Thanks guys will check the Nilfisk out
After recommendations on here I also got a Nilfisk and in particular this one;

I think it's one that's only available at Argos, and I only paid £100 a couple of years ago, but it comes with an 8m hose instead of the standard 6m and also the hose reel is incorporated into the unit which makes storage easier.
£89 at Screwfix and spot on.

I had a £10 off voucher from Screwfix so couldn't knock it.
It's a cracking jet wash for money
Whichever one you choose, go for a water cooled version rather than air cooled. The air cooled get very hot in the summertime, so the motors fry themselves!
