  • Imagine if cars were sold like houses. The dealer would ask you things like "did you want wheels on that?" and "seats are extra".

    Clearly you have never bought a BMW where everything is extra :)

    when people say "turf thrown in". Do you mean its an extra with new builds?

    So if you dont purchase it then do you just have mud as a garden?

    Yeah that's pretty much exactly what happens

    You can save a lot of money by just buying turf yourself and laying it, or just leave it as mud.

    Of course, if I were buying a new build I'd want to know if my neighbours will be buying turf or if I'll be living next to a pool of mud.

    Apparently the "no smoking" option (cigarette lighter deleted - socket still there though) is free.

    Saying that I've just bought a Caterham, and this is a car where the heater, doors and roof are optional extras.
    Unless it is damaged or discontinued - ignore any discount of over 25%
