Think I’m going to go with a refurbished X-T3 and XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS
Both seem perfect for my budget and experience

Good choice. Once you've used the zoom lens for a while you'll know what lens to buy next.

How often does the MBP website get updated with refurbished items

Have you tried Wex as well? They have some used X-T3 and 18-55mm bundles and I have always found items in better condition and price than MPB.
I’ve never had to return an item to Wex due to being in poor condition but have returned 3 items to MPB, the most recent a “like new” rated Mavic 2 Pro covered in scratches and had dirt crammed in one of the cameras / sensors.

Yep. I normally cycle between MPB, WEX and London Camera Exchange oddly enough. If I'm looking for an item I'll go through all 3 for the cheapest.Good shout, Wex are good.

Mint/Boxed X-T3 at my local camera shop, £725

It's about the going rate for a mint example. Assuming it has all the accessories and is boxed.

I’m going backwards and forwards looking at reviews for the X-T3 but initially I had a budget in mind which if I go the T3 route would put me closer to 1k 
So with that in mind is the T2 a viable option and would the same lens me mentioned 18-55mm still fit, many thanks in advance

It has all newer internals than the X-T2 and I think it would benefit you much better than the 2.
That said, if the slightly larger form factor is a must then 2 is a solid camera - but the 30 is better in almost every metric (it’s a baby X-T3).
Don’t get too hung up on the mark ii of the X-T30. The differences between it and the mark i are virtually indistinguishable.
Oh and any XF or XC lens will fit any X series camera so you’re good on that score.

I found a good example worth checking out https://www.lcegroup.co.uk/Used/FujiFilm-X-T30-Black-Body_356783.html

There’s also one over on ebay for £479 being sold by UPG24UK who are a dedicated used camera gear seller.
But yeah, have always found LCE a pleasure to deal with.
