If someone who has more knowledge of computers than me could have a quick look just to make sure I haven't made any silly errors.
Yeah!

No silly errors, however personally I'd recommend the AMD R7 260X or the GTX 650 Ti Boost as a GPU instead of the GTX 650, it's really worth the 20-30 additional dollars.
Also, I'm not sure the CPU cooler is necessary here, I have an overclocked i5-3570k and I'm using the stock cooler for it, still getting an idle temp of 30°.

Alright, I'll drop the CPU cooler and get a GTX 650 Ti Boost instead.
Thanks

BTW, If the Boost is too expensive (I think it goes over your budget, since the 2GB edition on that website of yours costs £134), you could still go for a regular GTX 650 Ti.
Can't help you with the manufacturers for these cards however, since I do not have any experience with nVidia cards aside from 3 stock ones that all failed

Well, when it comes to manufacturers, it generally depends on what's offered where you are. What manufacturers' offerings are available to you (and within your budget)?
