Come on guys ??? you do realise this is just an advertising scam to sell tickets surely? ur not that daft i hope?
No one really wins these cars, just planted people who work for BOTB and get paid a few hundred quid for making out they won.... oldest trick in the scam book, i'm amazed they still get away with it !!

I know the BOTB guys very well, and it's as far from a scam as it could possibly be. You wouldn't believe how tightly these things have to be regulated.

I can't help but think the plates are the wrong way round.
The cabs sort of says Boxster and the other starts with LC which could be london cab.
The London cab with the B10 XTR plate is always at the Porsche West London branch, it even has the porsche crest on the bonnet so im guessing it belongs to them, to ferry clients to and from home...The cabs sort of says Boxster and the other starts with LC which could be london cab.

Cheers. Make sure you wait til late in the month and follow them on Twitter. They usually post a discount code of 10-20% near the end of the competition...Congrats Alun, im a regular player on BOTB and have just bought my tickets for this month, unfortunately havent won anything yet though!
An update on my prize
I'm now upto 14k on the clock. I chose and ex demo which had 7 k on the clock so that's 7k in 7 months which is hopefully not stressing her too much.
I had a day out at Porsche Silverstone too with the loan of one of their PDK cars during the morning. I had an absolute blast and may have inadvertently done 2.5 hours solid lapping of the handling circuit resulting in canvas on show all round...
She's 6k off her first service so I'm putting money in my piggybank and I've got a trackday booked in April so I'll let you all know how that goes.
I also raised £550 from the links on my website from BOTB's affiliate scheme and donated that to a few small charities
Also the team at BOTB are still in regular contact just to say hi, ask how the car is etc and I'm going to pop down and see them at somepoint to say thanks again. I've never met anyone as gracious as Will Hindmarch about giving away £40K!

It's a great story Alun, and as a BOTB dreamer, it's great to read about the events as they unfold, from winning to picking up the car and driving it. Keep enjoying it, and thanks for posting!I'm now upto 14k on the clock. I chose and ex demo which had 7 k on the clock so that's 7k in 7 months which is hopefully not stressing her too much.
