Cheap/Reputable UK or Euro VPS provider suggestions

Looking for a reputable VPS provider in the UK (London preferably) OR anywhere in Europe really. I missed out on the recent inception and hostmedia VPS sales.
Minimum
512MB RAM
CPU doesn’t really matter nor does storage. Just need something basic for testing/learning. I’ll likely just be running OpenVPN on it.
I’m close to pulling the trigger on ionos (Virtual Server Cloud S) @ $2 USD/month but wanted to see if there are other providers I should be looking at.
Thank you!

Firstly, fantastic username.
Inception Hosting have a 512MB SSD VPS at 2EUR/month which is 0.25USD over your budget but if you pay yearly comes down to approximately 22.50USD/year which is under budget. @AnthonySmith is probably the longest running reputable UK host here, backed by @Clouvider who are widely considered the most 'Prem' of the UK providers.
Ionos are probably fine, but they're going to be far less 'friendly' than the average LET host.
ionos aren't bad but you generally won't go wrong with Inception.
I've been a happy user of @UltraVPS. Recommended.
We have servers in London, with free backups included. Little above your price range but thought I'd post in the event you may want to stretch it a bit for the backups, 3Gbit connectivity etc

AlphaVps might be another option - maybe they will be doing special offers for their 8th birthday...
Have you checked with Buyvm.net @Francisco they have Luxembourg Location
@Mr_Tom Is absolutely amazing. Take a look at VM specialist.
I'm just going to say this because it's bothering me, but isn't a 'boner garage' a vagina?
Thank you all very much. I still haven’t made a purchase but will take all suggestions into consideration. I really appreciate it.
