I've never experienced a problem using a SanDisk SD Card in my system; I've had a Class 4 32GB one in my system for about a year and nothing. I only say this because occasionally I'd get reading errors using a Lexar-brand card before that, which would boot me from any downloaded game I had been playing. So, if you can find a good SanDisk Card for cheap (and with "back-to-school" sales beginning at least in America, they'll be on sale soon), I'd go with that.

Exactly.

Try to get a class 6 or higher. The ammount of GB can vary, but class 6 and higher will load the data faster.
I got a PNY 32GB class 10 card for $35 last year in September about. There are better deals and improvements they've made since then, so it shouldn't be hard to find a good one.

That should be fine, but it really deoends on how many games you plan on buying.
A 16GB SD card has around 120,000 blocks(3DS memory) available, and a high memory game like Animal Crossing: New Leaf requires 6000 blocks.
So you can potentially carry 20 full 3DS games like Paper Mario: Sticker Star(5,000 blocks) before a 16GB SD card gets full.
In otherwords, you should be able to buy at least $700-800 worth of video games before a 16GB card gets full.
You would be able to buy around $1400-1600 worth of games without needing another SD card with a 32GB SD card.
Again, it all depends on how much memory space you need/want.

I got the Kingston 32 GB class 4 SD card. Works a treat. Seeing as you're in the UK you can always browse www.dvd.co.uk
They have pretty good prices and free UK delivery.
