Congrats !!!
I put in a bid on that car !!! Glad it went to someone on here.
I would definitely shop around and think about what you do before you sell it - if there are only 8 it might be worth rather a lot.
Ebay do have a free listing this weekend if that is the road you choose.0 -
Are you going to sell it or keep it?2008 Comping ChallengeWon so far - £3010 Needed - £230Debt free since Oct 20040

Unfortunately I'm not loaded enough to be able to keep it! I would if I could - would be a nice second car, but completely impractical for someone with two kids who is allergic to summer!
I might be tempted, if I can get away with it (without reducing the value too much) to keep it for a few weeks, just so I could pose around in it a bit
Then - if The Boro win tonight, my OH might be open to alllllllll sorts of suggestions!:D:eek::eek:

Got a card through the post this morning - very nice and everything, but a bit spooky because I don't know who it is!! From someone called Denise in Leicester? Any takers? See - now I'm kicking myself that I didn't put a fake name/username on the Kitkash site, but who would have thought it! LOL. (plus, I'm not sure if they'd have sent a car to some weird made up name).0

I used to put a false name on competition entries until one day I won one and they sent the prize by recorded delivery and the post office wanted me to prove my identity. I have been putting my real name since then.2008 Comping ChallengeWon so far - £3010 Needed - £230Debt free since Oct 20040

:D How did you prove it in the end?!
Maybe they should have had a "username" which was visible to all, and then a "real" name for their own records. But then, I wouldn't have felt a major urge to send a complete stranger a card, even if I did know their name! That's why I wondered if (a) it was someone I used to know but have forgotten about (quite possible!) or (b) it was someone from one of these boards who forgot to put their "handle" on. :rolleyes: But then, she seemed quite happy to put her full name, e-mail address, postal address and telephone number on it!0
