Replacement for ideal mexico boiler

[bob60]

hi everyone
i have a 35 year old ideal mexico boiler in my kitchen. It works very well but I am thinking of replacing it as part of the £400 government scheme. The problem is the boiler is very small and floorstanding, and is built into a kitchen cupboard. I would like the new boiler to go here also as I live in a small london flat. Are there any boilers now a similar style to the new mexico? It is only 25cm wide.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

this wont be possible. You'll need to reloacte the boiler, or make more more space for it.

Worcester do a floorstanding condensing boiler.

Potterton do a floor standing boiler.You would need a cupboard width of 400mm.
