Thanks all. I did check google but there's that much info and not all date stamped so I'm not sure what's current / accurate.
I'd heard about IR35 and some folk were saying I couldn't go limited if I didn't own my rig...hence asking here.
Not sure if there's different rules when you work through an agency? I'd definitely prefer limited as it seems relatively painless and the pay's better. I just wasn't sure if the rules stopped me from doing it...

Thanks Cojak - much appreciated! I think it's around the IR35 thing. I'm not an owner / operator so it's more to find out if I can go limited in the first place.
