New toilet & basin

We're having our bathroom redone and so need to choose a new suite.
The problem is that we are quite limited because we have to have a close coupled WC that has a horizontal waste outlet that will allow a 90 degree bend and the pipe to travel out sideways from behind the pan. It seems that quite a few suites won't be able to accomodate this due to the toiler design. Also, the filler pipe for the cistern comes up through the floor and in through the bottom of the cistern.
Does anyone have any recommendations for cheap contemporary suites that would be ok?

The toilet that you are describing is a perfectly standard type of pan. The outlet pipe can be swivelled in what ever direction is required. The only type of pan that you could not do this with would be a back to wall type. But even on this, the problem can be overcome by having the pan backed onto a cabinet or a false wall. When you go to choose, just take a sketch of what you are looking for and any half knowledgeable salesman should be able to offer you exactly what you need. As to the water inlet, again, just tell them that you require a bottom entry cistern.I can afford anything that I want.
Just so long as I don't want much.0
