A couple of weeks back I got the £9.99 jacket on special offer from Lidl and I'm very pleased with it.

Think about warmth rather than staying dry, I find waterproofs (hard shell) are too hot and I end up soaked in sweat quickly. In anything less than heavy rain I'd rather wear a soft shell if I'm a bit chilly.
The waterproofs only come out if it's very heavy or the temperature is below zero.
That all depends on your riding style, if you don't pedal much then waterproofs may be more useful.

Thank you all have found some lightweight waterproofs will give these a go.
