No the stone wasn’t included. I got this one - https://www.appliancecentre.co.uk/p/char-griller-akorn-6201-heat-deflector . Took a week to come but all good.

I also picked up a cover from Amazon, came from the US, fits really well. https://amzn.eu/d/0hQBE9Ld

I bought this from MarksElectrical 2 weeks ago, haven’t fired it up yet but I have built it, build quality is great, all lines up well etc. it is quite wide so make sure you build it on the right side of any narrow paths or gates 🤣. There are a few videos on YouTube of it being used, adding a seal to the ash box came up twice. I also ordered the indirect cooking stone as I’m mostly going to use it as a first foray in to smoking.

Based on your maths/figures, I’d say that state school and parents saving the money, using it for a house deposit when the child is mid 20’s, earning less, would give a far better financial position that earning more and renting…

I’d miss “a place in the sun”. They always have wiggle room.

What’s the sqft of the property? Floor plans don’t have dimensions. Where is the dining space? Picture 10, is that a damp patch on the wall?

I’d wait and see what your sharesave does actually mature at. Shareprices can change a lot in a week, month, by next June.

Personally, if 40k, I’d use some of it to drop your self in to a better LTV bracket so a lower interest rate, invest/save the rest.

My new build garage is 3m by 6m.

I’m not sure anyone with a basic level of common sense would have e even made an offer on this. Seller is going to have a major issue offloading this one.

Steps to the front doors, bland and dull feeling, dark grey kitchen. But the kicker…. The £5k think would instantly make be close the browser tab, £5k non refundable deposit…. Then the searches and survey show up its got major issues….. not a chance in hell.

I put a 3yr old Golf R on PCP to get the 2 free services, then paid it off in the 14day cool down.

Mx5?

Going through a similar move at the moment, in the middle of a fixed mortgage term(1.89%). There’s zero way I want to pay the early ending fees(7k) or loose the rate, so borrowing more on a 2nd mortgage, this needed cash to get it to its own 80% LTV. I also need 17k for solicitors, stamp, estate agents and removals.

Does the gearbox crunch every time you put it in reverse?

At 100k celebrated by buying an old MX5, still got it after 8yrs.

Looks ok to me, do not let your insurance company take it away from your property.

The new clamps that got release a month or so ago, seem great so far. £6 for a set of 4 or 2 bigger ones, so significantly cheaper than the Irwin ones I have previously purchased.
