Am I Buying The Right System?

Hi, all.

I'm looking to buy a motorised system and have pretty much decided on the following:

Manhattan Plaza XT-CM, Andrew 1224 motorised kit (1m Channelmaster dish, Titanium 2nd Edition 0.2dB Single LNB, Technomate V-Box II, 36v motor) , very meaty wall mount! The receiver will come "pre-programmed" with "all" channels for an extra 20 notes.

I live in S Lincs in a pretty exposed location, hence the meaty mount and motor. I'm looking to pull in as much as possible and am likely to be relocating to Bulgaria in a year or so so will be taking the system with me.

Does anyone have any thoughts on whether this system sounds okay, please? I'm not too fussed about recording progs etc but am undecided about HD...

My System: TM6800HD, TM1000, TM600 Linux,TM5200, TM2200 motor, Triax TD110 dish + Fortec 85cm. Meter=Satlook Micro+G2 NIT

Nothing wrong with the motor, it will easily handle a tiny 1m dish and a lot more.

Obviously, not a practical system if you are on a budget with the CM dish and 1224, but otherwise, sounds excellent.
