Your matress/rollmat is all important as the ground will suck most of your heat away.
Im a bit OCD about my gear so have always tended to spend that bit more than a bit less.
I would suggest at a minimum you use a Thermarest but because my back is knackered I use an Exped DLX matress, 10cm thick of goose down
Just to add, one of the worst nights of my life was spent in a bivvy, literally on the side of a road, somewhere in Russia :rolleyes
