ops, sorry, i did search but i can never find things on here x

No problem.Most of us have posted dupes,myself included.

Here's a guide to searching,just in casee you've not spotted it:

How do I search to see if a comp has been posted?
The Forum Search is not foolproof although if you take a couple of easy steps then it can help you not to post duplicate comps.

On any Forum page, just above where the threads are listed you will see the option to ‘Search this Forum’, click this & then select ‘Advanced Search’.

A new screen will open, which is the Advanced Search screen & seems to be more responsive to searches.

Please refer to the image below for numbered steps.

1. Key Words.
   Take the main part of a comp page address (URL) & type / paste it here.
   For Example, if http://www.goodtoknow.co.uk/competitions/show/id/2704 is the comp page, use keyword: goodtoknow.co.uk
   Also, for the radio comps, try searching for the part of the url that starts '/Article...' it should bring up the other stations if they have been posted.
   
   I recommend you only use the main part of the comp URL as sometimes comps change location on a site.
   
   If that search brings back too many results, then try using a word from the comp which will have been used if it was posted on MSE to narrow it down slightly.
   For Example, goodtoknow.co.uk watch
   
   You could also use the answer to search again, just to ensure you aren’t about to post a comp that is already on here.
2. Search Forums.
   If Competitions Time is not already highlighted in the list, simply scroll down the list & click on it to highlight.
3. Also search in child forums.
   Ensure this box is ticked, it means the search will also check in Competitions Time sub forums (the I won! Forum, the Game Over Forum & the Regular Competitions Forum).

Click on the 'Search Now' button & it will bring back a list of results. Read through the list carefully to see if the comp has already been posted. Repeat the search a couple of times with different search criteria to be more certain that the comp is a new one.

Something else to be aware of is that it can take a couple of hours for the forum software to include new threads into the search function. If you take a quick glance down the last couple of pages of threads to check for comps that sound similar to the one you are about to post & don’t see anything then you are about ready to post a new comp!

Another way some MSE Compers use to search for specific comps is to use the Google Search Engine. If you wanted to search for, say, Kung Fu Panda comps in the forum then you would type:
"Kung Fu Panda" "competition" site:forums.moneysavingexpert.com
(Please note the placement of the speech marks as that is very important!)
This would then return results relating to your search request.

The winner is required to hold a valid and current driver’s licence according to terms so don't think non drivers can enter even if deliver the car as far as I understand it so despite loving the other prizes I don't think I can enter as I think someone emailed itv once and they said you need to qualify for the whole prize.

This is correct isn't it?

I'm not 100% re the email,zray

For the car to be registered to you you'll need to insure it first so the license will be needed.Maybe there is a workaround via provisional or a friend but I'm not sure.
I know some will disagree but I'd enter & negotiate if I did not satisfy all the conditions & won.Nothing ventured & all that.

I would enter and take an intensive driving course thing. With that kind of money am pretty sure it could be afforded and am certain you could then insure the car on your new license (although that may be a few K)
could always delay the car delivery while you took your test:)

Thanks for the suggestions as know people who would love the car and I'd love the cash and gadgets but with people missing out on prizes because of terms and conditions I'm not sure if I could cope with winning and losing 60K ! I may search on mse for that email as I'm almost sure someone got a snooty response that if they don't qualify for the whole prize they should not enter!

Think I'm just going to enter in my partners name to be safe, I dont drive he does it would be awful to win and then have it taken away!

Thanks tubbyj for finding that! I think that's me out then and will carry on avoiding car comps! Good luck to everyone else and thanks again for helping me decide
