If you think the world is ending, buy gold coins, especially sovereigns and brittanias as these are CGT free.

If you think the world isn't ending, but gold is going to go up, why not spreadbet on the price as this is tax free.

If you don't like spreadbetting then BullionVault is a cheaper way to "paper own" gold, but of course any rise is subject to CGT.

From memory (but check), coins are CGT free.

Unless you're a TEOTWAWKI TFHer, then probably easiest to use bullionvault.
