Rorhl is spot on with this place. I made the mistake of buying from them and really regret it.

Is there any gain? Surely the car is being sold for whats its worth in many small amounts.
You receive money where you didn't have some before, so yes there is gain.

Regardless, a private individual cannot conduct a contest where they receive money and people have the chance of a reward, that's gambling.
Cheers for the link above.

You had an asset with a value. If the car was bought for, say, £5000 a few years about, then raffle tickets to the value of £1500 are sold, have you made monetary gain? Or to look at it a different way, if the car is valued at £2000 now and £1500 of raffle tickets are sold, is that still a monetary gain?

I'm not saying it isn't, just musing over the definitions.
I think the value of the 'prize' is semantics. The fact that a private individual is receiving money based on other people taking a risk that they may or may not receive something for their money still classfies as gambling, and therefore illegal to conduct without a licence.
