I saw a BOTB stand in Heathrow the other day with an R8 and a Tesla on show, I thought about it. But was a bit skeptical about weather or not it was just a scam.. I guess it's not really.

What happens when you win, do you get to pick the car? Or did you enter a competition for the Porsche?

Baically you can take a base spec car and add cash to it to get the spec you want. BOTB have been pretty cool and let me have a look at Ex Demo's around that figure as my wife was made redundant earlier this year and the Elise was possibly going to have to go as our day to day Mini Cooper S is getting a bit long in the tooth.

Currently looking at an ex demo PDK model with a few toys smile

I've always thought that these might be a piss take when walking through airports, but it nice to see a real owner / winner / PHer.

Enjoy, please keep us posted! Next time I'm in an airport I might have to spend some money!

I'm going to keep her for a while and see what happens. I never expected to be able to buy a £40k car so I'm going to savor this for a while. Next year will see a whole new choice of cars available to me!

If they will let you take a demo, thats great - you avoid some depreciation (not that it is actually costing you anything!).

Congratulations!

Is that Porsche West London (what used to be AFN) with the taxi in the pic? Had a couple of cars from them. Been in the taxi a few times : )

All the best,

Justin
