Hi,

I have a low cost 128kbps and a high cost 512 kbps link to internet.
Is it possible to do a "spillover" routing so that the high cost link
is used only when the low cost link is, say, used more than 80%.

I have seen this work in Sonicwall, from it's Manual:

Spillover-Based -- when selected, the user can specify when the
SonicWALL starts sending traffic through the Secondary WAN interface.
This method allows the administrator to control when and if the
Secondary interface is even used. This method will be used when users
do not really want outbound traffic sent across the Secondary WAN
unless the Primary WAN is overloaded. The SonicWALL has a
on-GUI-exposed hold timer set to 20 seconds – if the sustained
outbound traffic across the Primary WAN interface exceeds the
user-defined Kbps exceeds this, then the SonicWALL will spill outbound
traffic to the Secondary WAN interface (on a per-destination basis).
The user entry box should not have a default entry and be left empty
for the user. Please note this feature will be overridden by specific
static route entries.
