Two car garage

[ToeKnee]

Next round

After your incredible run of 25 years of dodging your considerable tax bills, HMRC have finally caught up with you. Alongside a flashy lifestyle, much of your ill-gotten gains was spent on cars, and you had curated an enviable collection, with a storage barn packed full with iconic cars and classic racing cars.

Unfortunately you are not Bernie Eccleston, but the good news is that you can settle your eye watering tax bill and fine by selling off your entire collection of cars, with just enough left over to keep your home and £60,000 to buy two cars which will make sure that you maintain your flash reputation, to avoid word getting out about the fire sale.

So, what are you buying?

More to the point Rob, so sorry they've finally caught up with you

Does this mean I'm not going to get my garage built??

The SL is a great colour combo, but my choice would be the 7er.

Sometimes I do wonder if you're


a brother from another mother.

Are you sure you don't live near Bristol with shedfuls of rusty Peugeot 106 XS, an XJS and an M5 touring with a "bespoke" interior ?

No, but you’re closer than you think. Haymarket picked the aforementioned Bristolian instead of me. I think they made the right choice.

Does this mean I'm not going to get my garage built??

Yes of course, but you see, the price of materials has shot right up, so unfortunately I need to ask for a 50% non-refundable deposit to secure the materials and a date to start work. Don't hang around though, the price is going up whilst you dilly dally.

The plot thickens. I suspected a spot of keyboard basher. Too much technical knowledge.

Like all of us, I’ve lived a life filled with forks in the road, and that was one of them.
