    Yes I have. :j

    It was a good while ago now though. Approx Oct 2003.

    Won a MG ZT-T 1.8 Turbo in Sky blue through the Telegraph newspaper competion.

    Worth approx £21,000.

    Sold it & used the cash to move house.

    Also won a few other cash prices & other things before & after the car win.

    Still enter all competitions going but won nothing much to shout about since then. Maybe it's my new address that's the problem with not winning much now! :rotfl:
    Won - Oct - Holiday to Lanzarote - Diving Holiday to Philippines :j
