Small kitchen? I’d think carefully before losing counter space to a range.
If the worktop is fucked (wood!) then might be better getting the kitchen re done if you really need a better cooking set up.
If not fix the worktop and upgrade the hob. You can fit the oven yourself.

Is it a thing to chop out the wooden worktop and unit and replace with a range cooker or even remove two units for a proper wide range cooker?
Both can be done pretty easily. You would need to remove the sink and worktop in order to do the cuts as the worktop should sit below the tiles. As you are taking the worktop out it would be much easier to give it a good sand and a couple of coats of Danish oil to recondition it.
Also as @Howard says think very carefully before losing any worktop space as it looks like it's at a premium.

Built in electric oven and mismatched gas hob is pretty standard.
If you do chop it out also be aware of regulations in terms of distance of flammable materials from hob/range. You need to make sure that it's on a level or higher than the surrounding worktop.

Have you thought of the possibility of going for a not full size but the one inbetween? Rangemaster do a 90 and a 120.

Kitchens... place we’re looking to buy has a built in electric oven and separate mismatched gas hob. Both a little old. Is it a thing to chop out the wooden worktop and unit and replace with a range cooker or even remove two units for a proper wide range cooker?
