How about ...."now with garage". I think he's added to the value as getting houses in that area with enough space for an RS6 is next to impossible.

I use this road quite a lot: it can be quite a dangerous road at parts (especially if you're on the wrong side of the road ...), with several fatalities recently.

Good thing no one was hurt in this, though I'm slightly surprised the houseowners haven't put some kind of barrier protection in place, given this is the third time it has happened.
