Rick-Manta Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 A lot of the competition/raffle companies relist the car "as the previous winner took the cash alternative" and make another load of ticket sales. I'm gutted as wanted another go, but given the amount I've spent on these things, is probably for the best! Can't believe the guy would take £15k over a £22-25k car!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can hazard a few guesses as to why! I know of a bloke that won a Fiat 500 arbarth brand new, took the 11k cash equivalent. I’d have had the car, ran it for 12 months then sold it for 14k lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't win the 3 million quid Omaze Mallorca mansion either 🙄 simply not fair, I'd have had a little holiday and then flogged it, unlike the Manta which I'd be sat in right now with a big grin as its not raining for once 😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
