Paramo jackets are really good and cope well with mud, use my Velez for MTB and horse riding is the worst weather Wales as too offer and it's been brill. They aren't however technically waterproof they pump water away. Arcteryx however are traditional waterproofs cut well and bloody good but expensive.

Goretex is the only true waterpoof and breathable material, never found anything as good,problem with anything else you get wetter on the inside than the outside,try mountain wearhouse, for light rain I use a light fleece ring it out and go again.

oh, i wish it would rain, 10pm and it's 28°C out

RF seem to be designed for chubby persons, that's my experience so far with them

i just use some trekking jacket i bought cheaply in Intersport and i'm super happy with it, fit is nice and long with side vents and it stays dry in 2+ hour heavy showers

Have a look outside the bike world. Something like an Arc'teryx, Mountain Hardwear or even North Face.

Yeah far as I can tell everyone seems to do an equivalent type jacket but I think the true waterproof-ness of them all is suspect,I have the endura and its waterproof for a time then it starts to get wet. Best option would prolly be the gore but the fit is snug.
