Did you allow for an Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) finish?
The memory expansion connector needs hasrd gold fingers for reliability, this pushes the cost up.
5 PCB with ENIG finish, shipped to UK + VAT + handling fees ~£106
10 PCB with ENIG gfinish, shipped to UK + VAT + handling fees ~£142
5 standard PCBs, shipped to UK + VAT + handling fees ~£95
10 standard PCBs, shipped to UK + VAT + handling fees ~£128

How about 'A600 revived' for this PCB design and the reborn for the tweaked one?
Keep the power planes 2mm from the bevelled edge of the expansion connector, that should leave enough room.
For a reborn design, I'd drop the RAM exmpansion slot and add the extra 1MB chip and provision 4/8MB FAST RAM in the space. 4 SRAM chips would work nicely
