An extra-wide fridge?

In their wisdom the previous owners of my home built a space that exactly fit their extra-wide fridge, which they left behind. The fridge is now getting a bit tired and try as I may I cannot find anything to replace it that will fit the space efficiently.

The space is 89cm wide by 179cm high, so I'm looking for something around 80cm wide. Ideally I would like an American-style unit but they all seem to be 90cm wide so too big, while normal larder fridges only go up to 70cm that I can find.

Does anyone know of any company that makes an 80cm-ish wide fridge? (preferably just a fridge but fridge freezer would do.)

    I'd be inclined to take a measuring tape down to the nearest Currys showroom and see can you find something that fits.
  • I had a quick look and Blomberg (3 year warranty), AEG and Siemens all do 700mm fridge freezers. Fisher & Paykel do 800mm but they're expensive.

    You could consider a standard 550/600mm fridge and then fill the gap with something like a wine cooler/rack.
