Fixed wheeler on a budget.

An old steel framed out of date track bike is what you want should be something in Cycling plus classisfieds for £100/150ish.
I got one for £125 couple of years back from Loot - make sure the forks will take a front brake and check the toe overlap with the crank/pedal/front wheel it can be tricky on track frames.

Sorry I've been on a training course, best bet is to get an old ten speed racer with horizontal drop outs then all you need is a fixedwheel built up, Suzue hubs are cheap but Goldtech are the best sealed bearings for good reliability.
Generally you can get a good chainline with one of the front rings.

That should get you started just ask away if you have anymore questions.
