This is from Amazon. The non-STM version is currently £67 so are your sure your have this exact same lens? The STM lenses have much quieter/near silent auto focus, which is a huge advantage when shooting video.
That said, a quick search found this version for £71 at E-Infinity Online Camera Store, although I have no idea how reliable that site is.

Sure you're not confusing it with the non-STM version?

@ msward, that would be lovely if you can let us know, but I'm pretty confident that this is the cheapest for a brand new lense from a decent retailer, I was looking for almost two weeks now.

E-Infinity are decent, just last week I bought a NIKON D3300 with Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 VR II Lens for £270 from them no issues at all!! Took a week to post it BUT great price for such camera.
