Tried to log onto Revcomps last night when I got the usual "still 5k tickets left" email, but the site was down for me continuously til the live draw.

Won this Tuesday. Haven't entered for donkeys. Usual email "they won't all sell out". Entered with 2 minutes left due to boredom. Still shell-shocked. Arrived today, from revcomps.

Utterly, utterly gobsmacked. Probably sit in the draw but nice thing

Nice win smile

Really liking the look of the Toyota on DCG. Something very different and I imagine a lot of fun.

I quite like the Arteon but (IIRC) it's only got 150 horses/180 lbft which seems somewhat miserly for a (relatively) large car....
The one last night was an R version with 320bhp.

Congrats - I have the same, bought 3 years ago but on the rubber strap (bracelets ain't my thang). Worn daily and not a mark - built like a tank.

Enjoy!

For £19.97 with 499 tickets, I'd say that's worth an entry for a fun little weekend thing...

I knew the name of the bloke that one the RS6 on DCG sounded familiar.

He won the Raptor a few months back, i thought it was somwthing else too, but i must be mistaken.

A quick search of his name on competitons at randim is eye opening!...... Looks like it paid off, big time.

One man’s meat is another man’s poison and all that. 2.5 old Boxster not worth a £20 gamble for me any day of the week - odds or not.

Would rather a 1 in 300000 £0.99 go on a 458.

Got to agree with the Boxster, does nothing for me.

As I can’t be bothered to search and you’ve done all the legwork feel free to share what you’ve found

Smacks of desperation on all sides. I suppose its easy enough to spunk 20 quid on a PlayStation comp with similar odds.

Jeez, Pristine Comps have got an Aventador S up now. 25days left and a whopping 99,999 tickets at £4.99.

Worth a punt for a few though, £200k cash alternative.

5 mins this morning, i didnt go back any further in detail. The name keeps popping up on almost every car comp, i didnt check the others.

11 RS6 2 Oct
13 Evo 8 2 Oct
2 106 Rallye 28 Sep
21 Golf R 28 Sep
31 RS3 26 Sep
25 RS4 26 Sep
3 Supra 23 Sep
1 R32 21 Sep
5 RS3 21 Sep

etc etc

Still, with the RS6 win, its clearly worked out.

It's worked out for him... I bet there are others with a LOT more outlay who've won nothing

If you win big at the start, you can afford to play. It's those who are in the hole spending big just trying to get back to zero I feel sorry for.
