    £2895 here in Norfolk, but check your local newspaper, shop around, don't commit until you KNOW it is the most competive price with reliable installation and back up. Don't be in a hurry.
    Quote..Gas condensing boiler.7 radiators. with Thermostatic valves, radio remote digital.£2895. Oil combi as above including oil tank £3885. Prices include materials, installation, full guarantee..unquote.

    This is probably a combi boiler quotation, check out the difference for a standard type with holding tanks.

    About 3.5k in the South East.

    British Gas quoted me something like 4.6k for a job that ultimately cost 2.1k, they are good for a laugh if nothing else.
