yup, get a fob to open some gates so can park around the back. There are garages which i could rent one, there are also little sheds as well. Could also lock a bicycle or motorbike there.

Won't be taking the bike though, insurance is too much, i don't need it.

Depending on how far the previous purchaser got before pulling out and how long ago it was there is a good chance that your solicitor can buy their searches. Should save a few pennies and time.

I do love the Monaro, however its has a bit of a chavness about it now which is shame, VXR8 is M5 with Vx badge.

Hopefully in 5-10 years time when Monaros are a LOT cheaper i'll get one  :)

Wonder how much your M5 would have been (had you bought one)  on insurance living there.

To give an idea, my bike insurance jumped from £400 per year to £2,600.

Car Insurance will jump 40%

Needless to say i declined the offer, the bike will be going  :'(

However i have already paid for the BMW Policy in full for the year, as the APR rate was stupid. As i have already paid it, i might get a little scooter to ride out the policy as i bet there are cancellation fee's on it  :-/

well had the valuer around and had the home buyers pack done, all fine, no major issues. Slight damp between bathroom and kitchen, but there is no timber there its only concrete, report suggests bath needs re-sealing, think i can do that!

They think its worth about 5% more than what i am paying so its all good, time for some mortgage paperwork!
