You might be able to get a free or heavily discounted underground tank from a gas supplier, Calor owns a lot of ours.
Should bring the gas cost down.
Do you need a boiler that big? Price looks around 45kW budget.
Last time i needed a new boiler i did all the work and got a registered fitter to commission and sign it off for under £100.
It's usually a simple plumbing job, just need settings to be checked.
Was this a reply to me? Assuming it was - we simply don't have space for a tank, underground or not, hence the cylinder deliveries.
We've in the process of buying a house that has oil fired heating. The boiler is new (installed last year) but I'm not sure how much longer that's going to be a viable option for. It has a large garden so there is plenty of room for ground source heating, however given it's quite an old house (dating from 1776) then I'm not sure that's a viable option due to insulation needs, plus it'd also be pretty costly if it also needs underfloor heating.
Very similar age to our house and we too have enough land for GSHP, but to insulate would loose a few feet off the dimensions of each room and take a lot of time/money. Besides the ground floor is Caithness slate, so a real pain to dig down far enough to get the insulation in there and install UFH. I'm afraid these older houses will soon all be knocked down and a 'small estate' built instead.
We did convert an old granary to a high level of insulation and add UFH, which makes that quite energy efficient. An ASHP was an option but we choose not to pursue it for various reasons.

Relative new build here in 1836; dry lining isn't too bad a job, fiddly bits around the windows and electrical points but it's a good opportunity to put in a bit of conduit. We managed to save the original skirting boards and rearranged some lighting.
High performance multi layer insulation plus a small air gap and a quick skim ended up less then 2" thick, most of the work done by a general factotum under a tenner an hour.
The floor is less important. Made a big difference then a few years later i did the windows and got a couple of chimney sheep. The house runs hotter now and we use noticeably less fuel.
We did refloor one house, took out a foot so my father didn't hit his head on the ceiling; i think virtually below any foundations there.
