A Place in the Sun buyer was taken aback by an unusual offer on today's show.

Jasmine Harman fronted today's edition of the popular Channel 4 programme. She was helping Chris and Pauline find their dream home in Cyprus on the latest episode.

The married couple were searching for a two bedroom apartment and had a maximum budget of £80,500. Jasmine got off to a perfect start as the buyers loved the first property, which was a two bedroom apartment in Peyia.

The search went from strength to strength as the buyers were blown away by the third home. The two bed apartment was close to the beach and boasted panoramic views of the sea and the mountains.

Chris fought back tears as he stepped out on the balcony and took in the view. He said: "I can't believe this. This is everything that we want. You've hit the nail on the head."

However, he was given food for thought with the final home on the search, which was a two bedroom penthouse priced at £84,703. Chris was particularly amazed by an unexpected turn when he found out the home came with a car included.

He said: "It comes with a car? You're joking. The cogs are turning."

When it came to the final negotiation, the buyers admitted the decision forced them to have a restless night. When asked if they had much sleep, they both said: "Not a lot."

Jasmine was surprised when they revealed they were still opting for property three. Pauline explained: "It came down to our hearts. 42 years ago we had that same feeling when we purchased that property we now live in the UK."

The buyers broke down in tears as they eventually secured the third home for £80,508.
