I’ve tried googling to no avail. But does Collins sell hardback Books of Wild Mammals of Britain and Europe like it does for other forms of wildlife such as Birds and Wild Flowers etc of which I’ve both got a copy off?

They did (my copy dates from 1993).
It was a 312 page hardback by David Macdonald and Priscilla Barrett. It covers all of Britain and Europe, tells you everything you need to know, but is a little dated next to those black cover editions you mention. If Collins brings one out, I'll be grabbing it!

Not a Collins guide but AFAIK this is the most comprehensive alternative

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mammals-Europe-North-Africa-Middle/dp/1408113996

But I guess you've already come across it.

I presume you know about this book: https://www.nhbs.com/mammals-of-europe-north-africa-and-the-middle-east-book

It is much newer and also hardcover.
