I believe it was used by several of the Mumbai gunmen to escape.

I thought it got transmuted into a hundred quid's worth of track laps in someone else's Lotus.

And some stickers.

Yes, this is what happened. Not sure about the stickers though - sounds a bit generous.

It was a look at a photograph of someone else's stickers.

Del Vincent (Davi) won the prize (a day at Lotus HQ inc a driving experience- the substitute prize) Poor Del has been in hospital and is still recovering, as soon as he is ready he'll be on his way to Norfolk. He has mentioned the possibilty of donating the prize to the auction when he is at BTaP 09 if he doesn't attend the day himself.

Pretty good of Lotus to offer this considering the comp wasn't anything to do with them IMO.

All entrants were offered money back, or the option of having the money donated to charity. PH added in some extra cash and donated it to Cancer Research as did the company behind the original comp. All entrants were e mailed by me and were happy with this, so if you entered you will know this already.

I heard it was being allowed to say the word 'stickers' whilst posing next to someone elses Ford Focus with the word "Lotus" scrawled on the side in crayon.
