Buy a house, get a free car

This flat’s got it all: a hallway, lounge, fitted kitchen... and a free Lotus Elise.
The flash sports car, worth about £10,000, is being given away by property owner Katrina Sweeney in a bid to attract a buyer for her flat in Scotney Gardens, off St Peters Street, Maidstone.
Initial attempts to sell the flat last October proved unsuccessful and the 35-year-old accountant hit on this novel way to beat the slump in the property market and attract interest.
She said: “We thought it would be an incentive.”
Estate agent manager John Wheatland , of Haart Estate Agents in King Street, said of the deal: “It’s the first time in 20 years I’ve had to do something like this.”
The two-bedroom apartment in the centre of Maidstone, is available for £160,000 leasehold.
