    it's very it's very unlikely you can put £85k in in one go. Maybe I missed how much you earn but generally the limit is £40k a year. There are ways round it but you'd need to BEA earning at least £85k to take advantage.

    Yes I know I would have split it down over say 3 years,  adding say 30k per year

    As your pension gets bigger you will need to pay more attention to how the money is invested inside the pension, unless you already do that of course .
