Off the top of my head I would recommand these Fine hosts;

http://billing.hexxeh.net/cart.php?a=confproduct&i=0 [External Link]
Private VPS service hosted by someone who needs dedicated servers to hosts his bots. Very high performance vpses and awesome support for a one man shop.

And the host I currently host with:
https://www.ximple.nl/virtuele-servers [External Link]
Is a relatively new to vps hosting and dutch based, but have not had that many issues with them. And for what is delivered. It's dirt cheap.

Both are self managed and located in the EU.

Depending on the actual load ( I can't really read those numbers, yet) I might be able to provide a transition solution. My own vps is standing idle as I don't host that much.
