Hi Paddy, I should state up front that I tend to go the cheap route with rain gear, but I have found some affordable options that work well for me. I have an O2 rain jacket which does not breath as well as some, but it keeps me really dry even in a downpour - unless the interior humidity gets too high. I have rain pants made by a small company in Oregon - J&G. Found them with a google search. They have a cheaper version (under $40 with shipping) and a more expensive, breathable goretex version. Both have 3M reflective ankle straps.
In the summer when it is difficult to balance getting wet from rain or sweat, I commute without rain gear unless it is pouring. But I change when I get to work. In the cooler months when I might not want to get rained on it is very doable to balance interior and exterior humidity and avoid a sweat bath. Just a couple more options to consider.
