    I have a budget of about £100, and I really want upgradable Ivy architecture.

    I'd really like a T430, but it's out of budget and the L430 is £40 cheaper.

    Is the T430 really THAT much better and should I avoid the L430 at all costs?

    It seems very hard to find anything about the L430 to the same extent as the T430.

    L430 is solid entry-level business.
    T430 is high-en business

    Both are 2013 models so you have to decide if you need the extra features offered by the T-series. Just check reviews on NoteBookCheck
