yeah thats just what i was thinking 5000 tickets is a lot! but if he does sell them then hell get 10 grand, not a bad idea really. a lot of people that didnt want to buy it may want to spend 2 quid on it, i wont be having a go tho.*smiley*

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

Yep. No refunds or anything I suspect...

If the tickets were 50pence, and he only had to sell 500 - I'd be more interested LOL!

But I ain't going to spend anything more than 50p on a description that says 'mini turbo' and nothing more....

Just think about that for a moment. 5000 tickets. Now most auctions atract a maximum of, say, 10 bidders, Car auctions probably less, how is he going to attract enough people.

I don't want that car, it's hidious. and a 1 in 5000 chance of winning it knowing the bloke is making a clar 10k, piss off.

Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

I'd want paying to take it away TBH........



Best thing you could do with that would be to tie it to a big tree so it couldn't follow you and then run away as quickly as possible.

I still can't belive that people spend that kind of money to make a car look like that.

and then expect to be able to sell it.....

in all fairness its a good con, because no-one will see you pull the winner out. so you could either:
A) Not pull on at all and keep the car and money.
B) Give it to someone n your family, adnproof you gave it away, then they give it back.

Possible the worse idea ever!!!
