I'll go halves with you
Too late as I've bought a few. Mainly because they offer a cash alternative on either, or both, cars. So i'd take the Rangey and the cash alternative for the Datsun, should Lady Luck shine on me! :thumbup:

If you wanted tickets you can get 10% off them today using the code SAVE10 at the checkout.

I've had a punt on a few campers lately and a guy put me onto the lot below as they've committed to a draw date now, but the ticket sales aren't picking up, which means very short odds if there's anything anyone fancies?

There's only one winner, but you get to nominate your prize and pay for your ticket accordingly, so it makes no difference mate ;) ;) :thumbup:

New house + New car + £2.5k per month throughout 2021 and £10k to spend on furniture for a ticket price of £13.99 at odds of 25974-1. Imagine being the lucky git who wins that lot! :shock:

I do think these comps are starting to fall flat now though. More and more people opting for cash alternatives, so it seems they are slowly turning into nothing more than cash raffles? Better odds than the national lottery, albeit for smaller prizes of course.

I entered that one when I was drunk on Saturday night. Only realised I'd done it when I checked my email the next day!

I had a couple of friends with 748R, one of them would turn in his grave at the thought of a red one tho', they had to be yellow.

One go watch though if you're a 90s/00s Superbike fan.

I've only had one go on their draws before.

That was for an RC45.
