June? Are they building the kit themselves before sending it to you?

The 620 is not available to build yourself, factory only.
It goes in to production in March taking around 12 weeks from start to delivery

Cheers, I am rather excited.
It was great getting to choose the spec although there really is not a lot of extras you can choose on the 620R.

Well done Craig clap

Stepping out from the 620R and into the RS4, I bet the RS4 will feel a bit slugish in comparison hehe.

Well it's well worth entering that's for sure.
Strangely enough I know another winner from back in 2003 and it stuck in my mind that he played infrequently at the time.
I usually played on the ipad when I was out at work during quiet spells and pretty much always for the Caterham although since then it's been an A45 AMG for the missus or a towing machine like a Landie or similar.

I spotted on BOTB website that a husband and wife won a car each just a matter of months apart!
What a result getting it once but to it twice is unreal smile

I spent £32.50 with them on Friday for the first time as a result of this thread. I'm looking forward to receiving the new car shortly.

I'll probably have a go 3-4 times a year from now on.

When do you find out if you've won? I've watched a few of the videos so I know what happens, but do they turn up on the Monday or does it take until Tuesday to get a demo car rustled up for the presentation?

From the FAQ on the website

"the winner will usually be surprised in person by BOTB Founder and CEO William Hindmarch on Tuesday or Wednesday"

I found out on Monday evening but that was only because I was out of the country at the time.
The missus knew before I did!

Getting excited now, it goes in to production in just less than a month with an anticipated delivery in May. Roll on the summer months off!

Out of interest, how many tickets did you buy when you won?
The chap who won a few years back was a serious 'speculate to accumulate' type who, if memory serves, bought a ton of tickets to saturate the target area.

I generally play for 1 ticket a time, if there's good discounts I sometimes do 5.

The new winner who won the Aston says on the video he only played the 1 ticket!
