Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
I'm feeling lucky so have ventured £4.99! Plus there would be a delicious irony in winning a car I couldn't get into! I'd compensate myself admirably with the £125k though...

Just spoke to my Daughter and she said they are probably going to cash the car in and use it as a deposit for bigger house! WBAC values it at £24k, but they'll have a punt around. Fantastic shot in the arm for a hard working young couple. So pleased for them!

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
A bit strange this. 10 days later and still no car. People have won since and had theirs delivered? RevComps said its being delivered directly as no other winners on the route their lorry driver is currently taking or suchlike? I don't doubt they will get it, but quite WTF is happening now I don't know? Wonder if it's been damaged in the yard and is now being repaired or something??

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
Or they'd struck a deal with the seller and put it into the competition and now the seller has changed his mind on the price or something.Taipan wrote: ↑Sun Sep 18, 2022 4:34 am

I think some of these cars are sitting in garages and the competition companies do a deal with them, especially if there is a cash alternative.

Yes and no.
Revcomps have the cars on their site, but yes they do have deal in place with garages when there is a cash alternative

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
No, in this case it’s my son-in-laws and him and my daughter are almost desperate to get it! They’re going to keep it for a couple of months before selling it on and can’t wait to get driving it!Potter wrote: ↑Sun Sep 18, 2022 5:23 amOr they'd struck a deal with the seller and put it into the competition and now the seller has changed his mind on the price or something.Taipan wrote: ↑Sun Sep 18, 2022 4:34 am

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
It took nearly 2 weeks for the camper to arrive, I think it’s just that they are busy as they are giving lots away. From experience they will reply to a text or a call.
I know the feeling of wanting it, I was climbing the walls!!

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
Car should be with them momentarily! There was an issue with a wheel that had been repaired but was still leaking? My Son-in-law was a bit vague about it, but I didn’t want my daughter in the motorway in a car with an iffy wheel, so I asked him to get clarification. Looks like RevComps have done the right thing.
