Get yourself 2 with the zip down the side & across the base. zip them together & you have a double sleeping bag.
You can get 12v electric blankets. You will need a second battery as they will flatten a standard battery over night.

Hi mate, check out Roman Goliath or The Beast. I'm 200cm or so, and currently using a king bigfoot airbed with normal sheets and blankets, but I'm thinking of side-grading to 2 self inflating mats and sleeping bags(the missus doesn't like the airbed).

I have a Mammut Tyn Winter sleeping bag. Combined wit a therm-a-rest Trail Pro self inflating mat. I'm 1.90m
As long as you are not "the moving type during sleep" it will work great.
If it is still to cold for you- what I really doubt- you can upgrade the sleeping bag with a Tyn upgrade bag, a second sleeping bag which fits into the first. Gives you additional 8°C of warmth- I can't stand the heat insulation!

Coleman have a few large size sleeping bags, 2m long by 1m wide in the Pilbra 5C, 0C & -3C. We have 4 of the 0C bags and they are great even on a cold Alice springs night and I'm 6'4" fitting in easily. They also have the Big Game at -10C thats the same size. http://www.colemanaustralia.com.au/P.../sleeping-bags
