    Seems about right. Roughly 50/50 materials:labour.

    You can probably get that down to 3.5-3.8 if you dig

    We have been quoted similar in South Hampshire (when discussed as part of a loft extension)

    The last install we had in the old house we used an ebay installer.
    If you search ebay for the specific model mentioned and installation there is a company offering to install for £1125 including the boiler.

    There are catches - its not local (but there are similar local companies to you), it doesnt include a flush, or any of your other extras, so its not a like for like quote but as you can see the price is only 25% of the price you have been quoted.

    I would give them (or any one of the others also advertising on there) and run through what you need.
