Toilets with side waste pipes - how can i replace?

[Catwoman1964]

I have an old white toilet with a side waste pipe that goes out to the right (as you are sat on it). Do you know where i can get a new one with a side waste pipe?

I dont want to have to turn the toilet round into a different position if i repace it, and i dont think there is enough room for one of those bendy pipes between the two - or if there is it would be at nearly an 'S' shaped angle and i dont know if the water would flow properly.

Any ideas?

Will a pan connecter not do as it can turn to the left or right and downhill

As Bahco said.
This will make your pan turn anyway you want it

Thanks for your advice - i have looked at these pipes in the picture you sent in some of the plumbers merchants - but the problem seems to be that the soil pipe going out of the wall is for example a foot away from the back wall where the cystern is, but the back of the current toilet is only about 6 inches away - its a really weird shape! - so these 'right angle' pipes wont bend round from the back of the toilet to the side waste pipe - unless i get one of these and one of those flexible bendy pipes - but will then water go out OK if its more of an 'S' shape?

the waste water will flush away if you bend the flexiable waste pipe in a S shape as you say. it will flush away as long as the pipe isnt running at an incline, just as long as the flexible watse pipe is either in a downward or a horizontal postion.

Thanks for your help - now that i know the water will flush away - i think i will take the plunge so to speak and try and buy a new loo - wish me luck (and no leaks!!)

Search for turn pan toilets. They have a waste spigot that comes out the back and the sweeps 90 degrees to the left or right. The other option is a two part pan where the spigot can be rotated to any position you want.

The turn pan toilets are about 125 quid as I bought one last week.
