First time for everyone.

I'm in the process of going for my first entry level hardtail because I'm slowly murdering the jaded town/trail man-trolley I've got now.

For the £400ish budget I've a toss-up at present between the

Felt Q520

& the Carrera Vulcan.
http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... oreId_1000 1_catalogId_10151_productId_810649_langId_-1_categoryId_165499#tab2

I have seen the under £500 review from this site but could do with a clue on the Felt and a broader opinion on the vulcan.
I'd be really appreciative of some advice fom you more experienced bods.

What would you go for?
Cheers
