The mysterious moneyed individual has secretly been sniffing around the property for two years but has only just closed on the deal.

Former operators of the car park Waterbridge Estates claim that the enigmatic owner will use it to house their personal collection.

Waterbridge Estates added: “The value of his collection is significantly higher than the price he has paid for parking.”

“It is unique. In the 20 years I have been in the industry I’ve not seen an opportunity to buy ten spaces, let a lone 130.

“It is a very good investment to have made, whether it is for a personal collection or to rent out to others. A lot of people spend time out of the country and don’t want to park on the street.”

The gelded garage works out at a whopping £150,000 per space, putting each slot over five times the average salary for the UK.
