either of these:
Blaupunkt GTa1300: www.caraudiodirect.co.uk (http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=4626&cadid=07f7db41edca46da14ea2390cc3b651c)
QX Series QXT200 www.caraudiodirect.co.uk (http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=38&cadid=07f7db41edca46da14ea2390cc3b651c)
both would do and both would give you some head room to work with so that the amp is not working its nuts off and not supplying the power that you need

you are looking for something that puts out 250w rms minimum, ideally go for something a bit higher.

ideally a 2 channels that you can bridge to a single channel to get the power figures your after, normally works out a little cheaper doing that

amp 1: yes but theres a reasons why it says such high power for such low price: bull shit though it should power your sub.
amp 2: not powerful enough to make the most of the sub
amp 3: same as 2
