The only 5080 option I can see under £2400: https://www.joybuy.co.uk/dp/msi-vector-16-hx-ai-gaming/10432474 175W GPU, 240W total is as high as you can get.
I don't mind it being a lower end gpu but seeing a 5080 at this price is really good. Thank you for finding this. I'm putting it on my list for consideration.
Consider a framework laptop.
