Hello folks.

So, today my boiler decided to paint my house end black.
Went in with a wrench, scooped out loads of rubbish, rust and whole lot what appears to be internal insulation. Boiler is completely rotten/rusted etc...
Firebird Popular 90 and MonoFlame Minor 1BR ST burner.
Took off burner assembly, shook/blown/brushed soot away as much as i could without getting into assembly itself. Boiler stopped smoking.

However, the state of the boiler makes me want to replace it completely.
What should i go for ? Small semi-det house, hot water storage cyllinder, power shower, rad heat regulated by thermostat. Acording to labels on old boiler its about 30kw. Boiler sits outside, in an insulated cabinet.

Any advice is appreciated.

P.S. Absolute budget end of things, not planning on spending thousands.
