Thanks for taking the time to read this, Alex
Hi everyone thanks for the replies. I did get in touch with the manufacturer but they say as it's not been serviced then they can't do anything about it. I was never given a service book with it when I moved in and when I started looking into it it was fitted in 2006 and as I moved in in 2008 they say that it would have needed to be needed to be serviced in between, so even if I had done an annual service they'd have not covered it under the guarantee anyway. I have got the cover I took it off to clean the dust off
a lot of people don'tI do yes but I just never thought a water tank would be needed to be serviced
The cover is missing from the immersion heater ! That looks to be potentially quite dangerous.
They are guaranteed for a number of years and usually for at least 10 years !
BUT to validate the warranty it is a requirement that the cylinder is given an annual service!
Otherwise a replacement is likely to be required.
Once replaced, a new cylinder will be a selling point.
Likely cost less than £1k.

Look at Joule Cyclone cylinders as a replacement
Very unlikely from the picture
