Looking for a VPS for a gameserver (EU ONLY preferably UK)

Hey, I'm looking for a VPS in the EU (preferably the UK but there aren't many UK hosts left anymore). It should have about 1gb RAM. Ping should be really good to the UK because it will be used to host a trackmania 2 gameserver (which is very fussy about latency. Virtualisation type can be ovz, it is not a problem for me. I was going to go with prometeus' OVerZold but it turns out the promo had run out 
.
I had trouble finding finding suitable offers on LEB and LET so I was hoping maybe a few providers could share their offerings on this thread. I'm looking for something around $5/month but there's a little leeway in terms of price which I'm willing to discuss.
Thanks in advance!

digital ocean amsterdam?
Prometeus, I can recommend them over DO.
@unused they no longer offer 512 or 1gb in ams
Ah, news to me!
Nodedeploy is really great for gameservers
Great experience with them
me too
just verified it !!!
bad experience with nodedeploy (cpu stacking/freezing)
IperWeb.com (prometeus) is kinda the best.
Edis.at (cost > 10$) but perfomance - awesome.
Digital Ocean (good);
LoveVPS good too

If the CPU freezes then you have been suspended, we issue virsh suspend on KVM guests who bash the CPU. Please open a ticket if you haven't received word from us
BradND, do not agry at me, it's not "unadversting". I just say true. All other things is good. But cpu is really slow for me. (someone on node use it too much)
We can offer a vps directly in frankfurt,germany on the global switch datacenter with really good pings. If you want a test vps, send me an email to [email protected].
I'm not angry it's just not normal is all which node are you on? We haven't had any tickets about any of our German KVM's being slow
please ding a ticket with times that its slow so we can investigate graphs and our other internal solutions
Can probably up this to 1GB this once if it helps:

Thanks for the responses. I've decided to go for the LEB Iniz offer that @Patrick pm'ed me a link to.
@jhadley, your offer is very interesting and maybe I'll end up giving it a shot soon but at the moment I'll be sorted with Iniz' plan.
Thanks once again, I knew I could rely on LET to come to my aid.
Welcome abroad :-)
For anyone else it was our NL offer:

@titanicsaled
If you want a KVM vps in the UK (coventry) we can do something for $7.
Let me know.

Iperweb/prometeus
Thanks for the recommendation.
Thanks here too
I wish to take this opportunity to make it clear that while iperweb ltd is registered in UK, that is only for internal and legal+taxation reasons, all infrastructure is in Italy.
We have a lot of tickets about this and even people that buy and then realize it is not in UK.
Is the VPS a requirement? I know Multiplay offers some beast game server hosting, and they're in the UK.
