Buy my house...and get my Lamborghini too

Rick Hill selling his house with the car thrown in
AN ENTREPRENEUR who says he is bored of big houses and fast cars is selling his mansion – with his Lamborghini thrown into the bargain.
Thirty-year-old Rick Hill has decided to sell his six-bedroom home in Church Road, Hockley, and has included his £152,000 car in the £1,150,000 asking price.
Rick said: “It is a bit of a novelty, but I am offering the ultimate lifestyle package. It’s a dream home, but with just two of us there it is a waste. I want to retire and I am looking for a simpler life.”
But even in “retirement” Rick plans to carry on making money by building up his investment portfolio. He says he currently owns 55 properties.
The self-made millionaire started his working life in a factory, paid just £3.50 an hour.
Six years ago, he started an online pharmacy business and has since started a separate marketing company on the internet.
He said: “I feel I have been there and done it, with the big house and the fast cars.
“I just want some chillout time now, a bit of time to relax and do what I want to do.
“It is time to move on and let someone else enjoy the house and car.”
The Lamborghini Gallardo has a top speed of 197mph.
The house with a sweeping drive and grounds, make an attractive option on their own even without the car, which cost Rick a cool £152,000.
The property has four reception rooms, a large kitchen, conservatory, an indoor swimming pool, gym and games room. Two bedrooms have ensuites and there is also a shower room.
On the market for £1,150,00, Evergreen is being sold by Essex Countryside. For more information call 01268 748428.

1.15m for house and car doesn't warrant a story, unless he's some deluded sould who thinks we should gasp in the amazement that he has a Lamborghini . . . in the words of the wonderful Shania Twain, that don't impress me much

Just remember he did it and so can you it is called hard work and gambling.
Good Boy rather you than all those parasitic benefit scroungers of your age who can but will not work because benefit culture has became a way of life and not a safety net.

To all you lot above I think it is called British jealousy!!Just remember he did it and so can you it is called hard work and gambling.Good Boy rather you than all those parasitic benefit scroungers of your age who can but will not work because benefit culture has became a way of life and not a safety net.
that is a totally idiotic thing to say - it's due to the major corporates having a 'gamble' on market predictions that we find our economy in the state it is !!!
As for 'benefit scroungers' . . . well i'm not sure who that is aimed at exactly, but i do have a lot of sympathy with the born and bred Brits who work harn and get nothing back when the parasites from Europe amd beyond sail in on the gravy boat to fleece our system for all they can get without ever having contributed in any way.
Oh, and just for the record - my wife and i work **** hard to ensure we can support our family and home without the need for handouts and there are many around like us. We don't need to splash our hard earned cash on luxuries like Lamborghinis - it's not as if you can take the whole family out or fill the boot up with a weeks supply of groceries, so how impractical is that ? Yet again, it's a nothing story, so i can only assume that it's quiet on the news front right now.

Good luck to him but the mans not in the real world like the rest of us are, he don't have to suffer the 5h!t we have to. He sould have a look at what's really going on around him http://thurrockpatri

Sounds to me that he can't afford his lambo payments anymore and is the only way he can get rid.
So anyone looking to buy a house with a lambo thrown in for free, DON'T BUY IT, COS IT'S NOT FREE.
Millionaire?????????
I THINK NOT.
