Neither. Take a look at Vaillant.
I'm sure someone will be along to disagree 😛 However the amount of issues I come across with Baxi and Ideal I wouldn't be having either of them by choice.

Out of those 2 I'd go with the baxi. But I would also agree with above and go with a vaillant too.
What’s with the 40kw ?
What’s the demand / outlets

Seems anlittle high on output what’s the requirement? If I was you I’d look into Vaillant or viessmann but depends on budget and if it’s for own use or rented property
The baxi platinum is a great boiler ones I fitted years ago are still like new.
Not a big fan of ideal. Vaillant I had so many problems with the pumps packing up diverter leaking and pressure sensors playing up that I got put off them and tried baxi been with them ever since.
It is each to their own though ask 10 people get all sorts of answers.
What's your flow rate like as a lot of people ask me for a 40kw but they only have the flow rate for a 33kw.

Let's be honest here it wont matter what brand you go for they all fall to bits with aplomb.
Imho you need to have it installed as per manufactures requirements otherwise you wont get a warranty or guarantee. That's the most important thing is how good your installer is.
For what it's worth having been an owner of various boilers over the years the worst I have had is a Worcester and the best I've had is the universally panned Alpha

I don't fit many boilers these days but I was impressed with Viessman. Very good components on the 100 range.
I've installed a lot of duotecs which were bulky and noisy so I wouldnt opt for one.

Can't say much on the duotecs but the new 600 series is really quiet.
I'm fitting quite a few 600's at the moment really impressed. Yes the duotec were noise but they were reliable. 600's are just as quiet as Worcester and vaillant
A lot will disagree but Baxi from my experience

Another vote for baxi. Duo/plat are great boilers. Big and heavy but reliable and stood the test of time.
Vogue is a decent boiler but they’ve changed the blocks from brass to plastic which degrades the boiler massively in my opinion.
Not overly impressed with Valliant/glow worm

Warranty isn't worth the paper it's written on
Unvented all day long combi won’t do the shower and drench together
Vaillant and as about the combi won't be sufficient if both showers where running same time.
What's your flow rate?
3.5 bar on incoming main doesnt drop
60l/min
60??????
