Free standing gas cooker

My brain is turning around in circles, and I was wondering if anybody had any recommendations?
I need a new free standing gas cooker. I have cooked/ baked with gas for 25+ years, so I have decided to stay with the fuel as I'm used to it, and on reading it still seems cheaper, I'm not a great cake baker, and use my slow cooker 2/3 times a week. Kids have mainly left home, although they do come back regularly!
The gap I have (and this can NOT be changed) is 55cms wide, signed up for £1 trial of Which-and of course their 5 best buys in gas cookers are either 60 cms wide or 50 cms -50cms would look silly with gaps either side, so that hasn't really helped me much!!
I want:
a gas cooker 55cms wide
in white or cream
one oven with grill above-right on top of oven (oven as big as capacity as possible)
and a lid which comes down over the gas rings
Please can anyone point me to some reviews, or have any recommendation's?
Price is secondary at the moment, I know they are upper end of £300 to nearly £500. I just want to find one with the specifications-with good reviews!!!!
Obviously reviews do depend on the person writing them-I understand that!!!
Please help?:beer:

I can find gas cookers which match your specifications except that they all have double ovens.
This Zanussi is available from Appliances Online for £485 including delivery. The one review on the site says it's a good, efficient cooker. However it also says the grill pan is far too large and doesn't fit properly.

Co-operative Electrical have the Belling Enfield for £414 including delivery. It's not in stock though and may take up to 28 days to arrive in their warehouse which means that you might have to wait a month for delivery.

Two positive and one negative reviews on Revoo:

Thanks for the replies-I have been looking most of this afternoon-and have come to the conclusion that I may get a double oven, it would be handy at Christmas.
I've been looking at New World 55TS1DOM which has quite good reviews.
This:

But in white.
Just have to find the cheapest place for purchase now, and any money off codes there may be around for that site!
I don't mind waiting a while for delivery-I've only had 2 knobs on my existing cooker for about 3 months (the other disintegrated!) and my daughter came home, grilled something, put the grill pan inside, shut the door with the gas still lit, and the grill pan handle fell apart with heat!
Oh and one of the ring on top doesn't work property (and it has a gas smell so I don't use it.
Because of the above I haven't been bothered to clean the oven either!!!
I NEED a new Cooker!!!
Thank you for your help.:j0
