    you would be suprised how much cash is involved in laying floors, i mean the min i charge for any job to cover costs is £35 a sqaure metre, and thats the cheap job.i did a floor for a mate using the mid range products, which i got some discount on, only charged him the price of materials. the job was 16sqm, not complicated, it would of come to a 1k, on mates rates, and around 2 full price. and it was only 3 days work by myself.....
    however i was going out and buying a car like that, i thinki would tax it, screw washing it though

    Nice to see he is also capable of parking it within the parking lines...I guess if you drive something like that, normal rules of the road don't apply, hence the lack of road tax!
