It's a sign of the times when a garage in central Brighton is auctioned to the highest bidder for £30,000.
In many other parts of Britain, you can buy a whole house for the same price as this modest garage off Centurion Road.
The buyer doesn't want to reveal his identity perhaps for fear of seeming to be a financial fool. But, with soaring demand for parking, he may have bought himself a bargain.
