Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
As much as the thought of winning a Ferrari, Lamborghini or whatever supercar is great, in reality you’re only one problem away from a repair bill that would break you.
I would just have to sell it straight away, probably without even driving it.

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
I only enter the big comps for the cash alternatives as I have absolutely no need for a super car and probably couldn’t even get in and out of one lol! That said, A guy I know had a convertible Porsche as a daily and whilst it cost him a bit more in servicing compared to a normal car, it was faultless in the time he owned it.

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
Ferrari do a deal for cars, from memory, over 5 years old - servicing isn't actually that much more than an average saloon dealer service.
When a friend had an F355 many years back, it went in for a full service including belts and only came out at a grand.....

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
I'd bloody love to drive a Ferrari around this roads in anger!! But I wouldn't want to own one!! Cash alternative and I'd rent one for a few days
Life is for living. Buy the shoes. Eat the cake. Ride the bikes. Just, ride the bikes!!

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
It is possible, dependent on how deep your pockets are. My friend sold his F355 and joined what used to be called Ecurie 25 - you buy days (his package was circa £20k per year!) where you can take pretty much any of the latest supercars for a day, weekend etc and drive like you would in a rental Fiat Panda in Spain

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
Latest 'scheme cars' list dropped at work yesterday....proper goodun on there, £120k convertible with a thumping great engine in the front, £630pcm and no deposit. Servicing is included.
Two of my co-workers were all set to push the go button until I suggested they check the insurance first
I imagine it'd be the same with these Ferraris
I'd have been on it like a tramp on chips if I didn't need back doors and a decent boot

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
So erm… Guess who’s won (again!) on Apex66…
“Only” some free entries to other comps this time, no real prize. But my 3rd win with them now, and won 25x entries into the next 4 motorbike draws, including an original 98 R1, a brand new Triumph Moto2 edition 765 Street Triple, and a 2017 S1000R… Quite good odds on the Triumph in particular!

They do quite a lot of draws, mostly bikes but the occasional oddities like holidays. Odds don’t seem too unrealistic. I only know them cos one of them is the salesman at BMW.

It's been a while since I've had a tickle on a bike draw, got to be worth a couple of tickets

Re: Online competitions for cars, bikes and tech goodies.
Absolutely on a roll here! Just had my 3rd win inside a week on Apex66... 4th win overall...
Just a pair of Gloves this time, but they look just the ticket...
Won on the Apex66 instant win comp... https://www.apex66.co.uk/competition/ex ... tant-wins/
For anyone not yet registered on Apex66... If you use my link to register, you will get £10 credit (as will I) to use on the site!
https://www.apex66.co.uk/?raf=ref4713375
So far I've spent about £200 on tickets over the last year or so on the site, had another £50 credit in referrals to use, won a bike that I sold for £5,250, won a trackday, won 100x entries into other comps (not yet drawn and entries worth approx £250 all in) and just won some gloves worth £125 too... I thought my premium bonds were doing OK @ 25% return for 2023 (20% of it was in one month!), but thinking of taking that money out and blowing it all on Apex66 tickets right now!
