VS/DL/BA/AA: LHR – NYC/WAS/LAX Biz round-trip from £1,295
Some very cheap J prices from London in Feb & Mar 2019. Nonstops available. DL/VS seem to be slightly undercutting BA/AA
JFK from £1295
WAS from £1333
LAX from £1405
Probably more...
BA/AA books into I, DL/VS books into Z
All probably less with OTA discounts via meta search

I booked one of these yesterday. You can double-connect in the US on DL and the domestic legs book into full-fare F, so 200% MQM there. (You can also book on KL flight numbers for 200% RDM/40% MQD at the expense of 150% MQM on all flights.) Using Powertools, was able to book LHR-BOS-ATL-DCA-ATL-MSP-LHR for £1430 or so, which is good for just under 17K MQM.

You can reduce it further if you're happy to position to Inverness for the outbound to avoid APD:
