Mixing Desk or Mic Pre's?

At last my crappy Behringer MX2442a 24 Channel desk has finally decided to give up on me, which gives me the great pleasure of replacing the thing.

I mainly used it for pre's when I would record drums.

I have a Layla24 and an ADA8000 which I use to get 16 inputs.

The ADA has some remotely decent pre's which I wouldn't mind using for drums.

I also have a nice Focusrite Pre which I use for vocals.

Here is my dilemma:

Do I go and buy a desk, with 8/16 decent pre's OR do I stick with the ADA and buy myself a couple of stereo preamps so I have 5 quality ones.

Are there any decent low priced desks with nice pre's and direct outs?

The mackie 8bus' seem to be going cheap, are they worth the money?
