It just needs a couple of brake discs, an exhaust down pipe and decluttering. The only drawback is the colour, but surely that's not the end of the world? 3 more randoms for Cartakeback please.

The one thing I would say is that most people who have offered to buy tickets so likelihood is that it will be in the possession of CTB sooner rather than later. If you like the car then keeping it would save it. BeEP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Bo11ox Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Put me down for a couple of randoms if you like. Note that if I win I'll ask you to ring CTB on my behalf, take yourself and your lad to the pictures on the proceeds then paypal me whatevers left. rantingYoof, Rod/b, NorthernMonkey and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saabnut Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Keep it - it is only money! Enjoy it with you lad until January when CTB will probably give you the same fo it sans MOT. No loss and another year of memories. Ohdearme and The Moog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busmansholiday Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I'd actually use it and do it up. Sadly the chances are that ctb would win. Keep it, put it back up for roffle at Xmas, it could be one hell of a secret santa for somebody. Ohdearme and LightBulbFun 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busmansholiday Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 And having thought about it then it's simple. You openly ask for X tickets but you don't say who for. You have to pm the doc with your nominations (you cannot nominate yourself). That way only one person knows the truth. Xmas day is a Wednesday, so what better than waking up that day knowing there's a chance you could be the lucky* winner. TheDoc just published the list an hour or so before the draw, just to get everyone's arseholes twitching. barmatt, DoctorRetro, clayts450 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorRetro Posted May 9, 2019 Author Share Posted May 9, 2019 Spoke to my littleun on the phone last night, told him about the BMW and said I wasn't sure if I would keep it and his words were: 'Sell the Rover, keep the BMW.' Ohdearme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorRetro Posted May 10, 2019 Author Share Posted May 10, 2019 I'm going to go ahead with this now, if everyone is OK with that. 51 tickets will provide just enough money to help my dire finances this month. Any ideas what to do if a non-allocated ticket comes up? I'll start sending pm's out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas what to do if a non-allocated ticket comes up? I'll start sending pm's out soon. You could just work back a number until the first allocated number comes up; ie, 16 31 42 49 10 09 11 If 11 was an unallocated number it would then go to 09, if unallocated 10 and so on.

Rod/b Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 If nobody has the “winning” ticket just roll it over til the next draw? Probably best, and will save the inevitable whinging. Dan_ZTT and DoctorRetro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loserone Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 As long as you state absolutely what you plan to do, noone will have any issues with it. Either last drawn in order or draw, or rollover, would work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
