Great phone But I'm desperate to get hold of the 2GB/16GB version of this at a sensible price.

Good Price! - I paid £129 in John Lewis about 5 months ago - albeit would not say its the best phone I have ever had, runs out of space very quickly and tends to run really slow! but suppose that's on the individuals usage of it and what apps your downloading.

Did you update it with Marshmallow, might help with the space aspect

Have you put a memory card it in and set it up to be used as storage?
You can get a 32GB micro SD card for it for well under a tenner.

In my experience I've found that it barely helps at all. Even though the phone supposedly 'adopts' the card as internal storage, the majority of apps still cannot be installed to the card, and will only install to local storage.
It's no different to the 'move to sd' option that was present in Lollipop, apart from now it encrypts the card so that it can only be read in the phone that formatted it.
I managed to get a whole 3 extra apps installed thanks to adoptable storage, before the phone was complaining about a lack of space again. And those apps crashed and hung all the time, despite the card being fast enough.
