ADSL2+ is available pretty much everywhere here in Germany.  If I paid 10 
euro more per month I could have 16 Mbit/s instead of 8.  Also if I lived 
about 5 km closer to Munich I could get VDSL2 which is 50 Mbit/s :-D

It seems some companies are using ADSL2+ in the UK in limited areas:

In some UK places you can also get internet via cable (I had this while I 
lived in Oxford).  Last time I checked you could get 10 Mbit/s that way, 
probably higher now.
