No J&C they drive the posh car because they still live with Mummy!, ask the old fiat driver instead, I can think of a few around here with "only" 5 houses, the more derelict the more dosh? just isnt done to flash it.But then I live in Marche where they know all about tax collection, to very much paraphrase, better a corpse in the house than a Marche tax collector at the door.

Does the average Italian actually file? I thought if you were an average employee with tax with held at source you didn't need to file normally.
You can inherit a few houses pretty easily these days. But a new Porchese is seldom left in the will. Plus a new 911 could buy you three or four houses around here. Even a boxer is more expensive then some houses.

A reasonable query posted by Nick (as in does the 'average Italian file'). In my experience, yes they do. Okay, they all have a commercialista in the family so it costs nearly nowt, and it is not a big professional deal, but nevertheless they do file a tax return. If it was a 'no brainer' just to ignore this stuff, I think the average Italian would ignore it. The fact that they do not ignore it simply reinforces adriatica's sensible (and not expensive to implement) advice.
(For angie, a boxer is a type of Porsche IMO much more desirable than a Cayenne...but probably a bit passe now!)

I'm flash and still living with Mummy Angie, but my Cayenne is the bain of my life with petrol prices at todays dizzying heights - and even though it's just gotta go - I wont be buying a BOXSTER as everyone knows it's a poor mans Porsche and there is always those nosey neighbours who love a good gossip to worry about. :bigergrin:
How do you think a slightly used Aston Martin would go down in Marche? :laughs:

In the hills outside of Vasto/San Salvo.
A boxer-s is less then 60K Euros.
What have you got against Porsche Cayenne owners? :winki:
Wouldn't people who own one of these fabulous vehicles be the ones to ask - as they may have more money than the owner of the little old Fiat - and that could be due to having the best (or most creative) 'Bookkeeper'? :bigergrin:
