Is it worth putting in a Combi boiler to replace my system boiler

bmthmark

We recently had a worcester combi boiler installed. We had a conventional boiler before that was situated in one of the bedrooms. We have now moved it to the loft so its out of the way.
So far we are really happy with it, we now get constant hot water. It was a pain before as I kept forgetting to put the hot water on.

We paid £3.7k for the new boiler relocated to the loft and all radiators replace also included adding 2 new radiators.

Not sure if we are saving much on our gas bills as we have only just had this done. Does anyone know if a combi should save on the gas bills?

The only thing we miss is the airing cupboard.

I've just received the quote from my regular plumber.

Vaillant EcoTec Plus 430 boiler, fitted to replace existing boiler, including a new Honeywell 3 port valve, and the installation of a Grundfoss condensate pump (because boiler is in the cellar).

Total cost £2300 + VAT.

Does that sound reasonable? I thought it was a little on the high side given that the boiler costs around 950 and it shouldnt be more than 1-2 days work?

Can anyone tell me if this is £2300 + VAT is a reasonable price for a boiler replacement?

I would say it is in London.
