Yes I have and it is lots of fun.

There are a few builds that I can recommend to look at.

-MSU'íng in general. Inquisition has one of the best options at MSU'ing this opens tons of backfield options

-PSY heavy bolter Chimera spam with 5 nasty shooty dudes inside. Works like a charm.

-Cheap power dice generation. Just take a psyker in every squad and you will soon have more dice than any GK player could ever dream of. An allied Imperial guard Psycana formation just puts this build in overdrive.

- Expensive nasty melee henchmen squads in a landraider.
This seems silly with guard base stats and sure they will get mowed down in a competitive setting but those fearless squads with rerollable 3++ and 2+ saves mixed in with a melta bombz + a huge amount of power sword attacks are nothing to be sneezed at.

Addendum to this: The cheapest psychic die in the game outside the Inquisition book is 30pts in a Seer Council. The cheapest psychic die in the Inquisition book is 18pts (3-man Henchmen squad, psyker and two naked Acolytes).

Ow and do look at the grenades the special Inq grenades are insanely good. They are still the original Matt ward GK grenades and can completely cripple your opponent.

Do you mean designed by Matt Ward, or they contain some Matt Ward?

It depends on the role on the battle field.
Here are some examples I like to run.

-2x dude with lasgun + 1 psyker. -> Dirt cheap disposable unit useful for both area control / deepstrike denyal and the production of warp charges.
-3x heavy bolter servitor + Inquisitor with conversion beamer. + optional dudes with lasguns for extra wounds.
-3x dude with plasma gun -> Nice for shooting out of the chimera's and mowing down stuff.

And there are the cheeky ones. They are really fragile so need to be out of line of sight at all time but they sure can pack a punch so they can't be ignored.
-2x dude with lasgun + 1 Melta gun.
-3 Death cult assasins.

The Inquisition book is more doable as a pure army than most; it isn't overly flexible but you can make a functional mechanized army with it. Bolter-armed Acolytes, lots of special weapons, 10pts to add an extra Mastery level to any squad, and any transport you feel like give you lots of directions to go in. You probably want to figure out good inexpensive models for various Henchmen; you're going to want a good number of Crusaders, Death Cult Assassins, Acolytes, Priests, and Psykers. Mystics are useful if you're using Deep Striking allies, Joakero and Servitors are useful in backfield support squads since they're your only real source of long-range firepower, Daemonhosts are unreliable and unhelpful, and Arco-Flagellants are almost always worse than DCA.

If you want to focus on the Inquisition element Guard aren't great Allies since they do pretty similar things (Inquisition allies for a Guard army are fantastic since you can spread cheap psykers around, but if you're building a mechanized Inquisition army all the Guard really gives you is Sentinels and Russes). Grey Knights, Deathwatch, and Space Marines of one sort or another would all be more useful (fast units, melee units, more psykers/folks that can make use of the psychic dice, tougher units).

The mechanised route was the idea I was going for, plenty of chimeras backed up by a land raider or 2. May have to look at some of the more specialist marines, put together a few force ideas and it always tends to look incredibly squishy once they get out of their boxes!

Basically want to put together an elitish army with lot's of weird rules but won't necessarily get tabled in 3 turns in a normal game!
