Default Jdm hatch,

Just reading up.
Is the jdm hatch (2ltr) a great car? On par of less with say a wide track blob spec c?

The inheritance should come post tax, as IHT is the liability of the deceased's estate.

The JDM blob/hawk/hatch variants definitely interest me.

My specialism is corporate and business tax, but I had to cover IHT to get my Chartered Tax Adviser qualification, so if you need any informal steer along the way, feel free to drop me a PM.

Sorry to hear of the circumstances. Sounds like you have the right approach though.
