Rega Planar 3 - help

[Freakuk]

Now that vinyl is all the rage again the wife wants me to get another turntable (I've got loads of vinyl that hasn't seen the light of day in years).

So looking at reviews and recommendations the Rega Planar 3 seems to be my preferred choice, but I can buy it with a cartridge kit (Elys 2) or without. I've read a few reviews where the Elys cartridge doesn't get great reviews so I'm wondering if I should buy without the cartridge and buy one separately.

The question is which cartridge to buy or should I stick with the Elys2?
