The gold is the same bolier as its equivalent baxi or potterton. The only difference beside the outer case and the name on the box is that the gold comes with a longer warrenty. All you are paying the extra for is the warrenty. The Main version is also internally identical to the baxi and potterton (same spec models). The Main brand was re-released to tap into the cheaper boiler market but is internally a current model as sold badged as both Baxi and Potterton.

So you don't always get a better product when you pay more money for it. Sometimes you can get the exact same thing with differnet names on but priced differently depending on the name on the box.
