I made the following corrections: 1. Corrected "extimated" to "estimated". 2. Corrected "vigt" to "viz." (though it seems like it should be "viz" or another word, "vigt" is not a standard abbreviation, and "viz" is a common abbreviation for "videlicet" or "namely"). 3. Corrected "£94.000" to "£94,000" and "£42.500" to "£42,500". 4. Reorganized some of the text to form coherent paragraphs. 5. Added or removed spaces to improve readability. 6. Changed some punctuation for better sentence structure. However, upon closer inspection, it appears that the original text was quite disjointed, likely due to OCR errors. I have kept the original content as much as possible while making minor corrections. The text still requires significant reorganization to form a coherent narrative. To fully comply with the instructions, I should output the text in HTML format using `

` tags. Here is the corrected version:
