Simon's Town: Buy The House, Get The Car

Desperation is starting to set in it seems. Here's a 3 bed house in Simon's Town for sale for R1 985 000 and if you buy it you get a free 2000 Land Rover Freelander. Now the car may be free but the insurance and maintenance (and petrol) aren't...




Thanks to reader HJ for the link!

Update: This house is in Glencairn Heights, not Simon's Town. Sorry if I offended any Simon's Towners.

First up this is Glencairn Heights, not Simonstown. They're separated by about 5 kilometers and 1 million years of human evolution. So for starters they should be offering the Freelander plus the house for free, just to get me to drive into Glencairn Heights.

And then there's the house. Wow. Somehow these people have managed to make a perfect replica of the kakkest house in Delmas in 1983. That takes some doing.

I especially love the vomit-coloured tiles everywhere, and the oh-so-Orkney Snork Nie archway from the dining room to the kitchen with a detour via 1979.

The glass bricks and the pine ceiling also add to the whole Vote No For The Unbanning of the ANC vibe.

Do you think if I offer them R400,000 they'll throw in the 4-inch TV in the spare bedroom? (Please lord let that be the spare bedroom and not the master...)

The interior of that house really is atrocious...

its a pity that a 1000 square meter plot with great views and located in abeautiful part of the Peninsula had to be literally butchered with a ugly square block of a toilet.

I live in the Southern Peninsula and I can tell you that property sales are all but dead. In Glencairn, there are for sale sign galore.

This property in question is worth about R1.2 max. The plot alone is worth about R700K. As for the house, maybe R500K. As for the car, I would not want a Land Rover, even for free!!!!

Bean Counter, that is by far, the funniest comment I've read in a while! "Vomit tiles", "Orkney Snirk Nie" LOL LOL LOL
