DIY kitchen makeover (help needed at end)

Hi all,
We have decided that with current events we are going to put our kitchen make-over off for a while and make do with what we could do cheaply and ourselves.
So far we have painted the tiles on the splashback, painted the cabinet doors, carcasses, the walls, changed lights for brighter LEDs and (in a leap of faith)covered the worktops with a decorative film.
It looks like a new kitchen, and only cost around £120.
The only thing that needs addressing is the floor. Currently it is a dirty grey very thin tile and needs brightening up.
I am against tile ATM, and while I have seen some good projects using tile paint, I am a little put off by wear, and the time to cure.
TLDR
So I need to source vinyl flooring , but I am having a bit of a nightmare finding a good deal among the permanent sales and bait-and-switch online advertisement.
I need 4m by 2m (roll end and offcuts rare in 4m lengths), just a cheap white tile effect would do. Has anyone found a good company that supplies flooring ?
Happy to fit myself
