Gone in for the Alfa and Abarth on Revcomps just because I fancy a new run around, if I got the Abarth though I'd have it resprayed red.
What other sites are recommended these days? I only look at Revcomps, did try to enter Watches of Wales comp the other night as it was the exact watch I have been lusting after for ages, but the site kept crashing when taking payment.
Can’t see either, did they end today? What other sites are recommended these days? I only look at Revcomps, did try to enter Watches of Wales comp the other night as it was the exact watch I have been lusting after for ages, but the site kept crashing when taking payment.

Was great to hear the Atom winner enthusiastically taking the car too, I had not entered that because there’s no chance I’d have garage space to keep it so would effectively be playing for the cash.
He certainly was enthusiastic on the call but he changed his mind and took the cash!Edited by Timfy on Tuesday 19th March 09:55
I would have taken the car on the atom draw as I doubt it would lose much value over the summer then would sell on later in the year. I expect a lot of the big car winners may have great intentions of the car until the reality of paying off a chunk of their mortgage hits the next day.
I would go for the same approach on tonight's Ferrari. Even I can sell it for a 20k loss in 6 months, it is still a huge profit on the cost of entry and I get to own an otherwise unobtainable car for a while.

They typically don't process them daily from my experience.
When you say 10, does that mean you had some accepted on autodraws as only 8 prizes tonight? They are always processed on the day of the draw in my experience and all 3 of mine today have gone through as expected.John87 said:

Yeah a bit of a mix really, I've had them accepted on the Guiletta and GSXR 1000 auto draw up to now.EDIT:
And now the Z4

That’s the problem I have with it, I 100% would want the car- my wife would want the cash (or nag me to sell the car) but she does have a point. I would go for the same approach on tonight's Ferrari.

£200k is enough to pay off our mortgage and have some change for a very nice sports car, or most of our mortgage and still buy an older, more affordable Ferrari (an F430 and 25 years of much more expendable income would be nice compromise!)

They have started processing postal entries, 10 of mine have been added today.
10! That sounds like far too much effort. 
I try to stick to 2-4 but only really for things I really want (otherwise I’d probably waste any luck I did end up having on winning an Aygo…)Edited by Timfy on Thursday 21st March 15:58

Really only just started as an experiment , the way I looked at it was each 2nd class entry costs ~£0.81 so ten entries = £8.10 vs 1 online entry to the Ferrari is £9.95 .... for the sake of writing some postcards I think its a nice little saving. I try to stick to 2-4 but only really for things I really want (otherwise I’d probably up wasting any luck I did end up having on winning an Aygo…)Agreed its probably a waste since I won a Ibiza villa holiday which we are due to go on in May and an iPad so my lucky pot is pretty empty I guess, but I've got more than than the lottery is the way I look at it.
