I'd choose money, because I don't have enough income to pay all the car taxes ...

Once my go golden ticket wins

i'll probably take the car and put it on autotrader right away

Are you people mad? Choosing to take the cash over a car worth twice the value? That RRP is correct and for a quick easy sell you could easily get 9k+ for it!

Even ignoring the financial incentive of the car over the money, a free car is way more exciting (just think of the proof pics) than a boring balance transfer!

Note for the winner - if you really want the cash im sure there will be lots of people willing to give you £5k (i would) and get the brand new car themselves!

Well said... I'll give you £5,000.01 just to beat Simon though!

I'd get the car... take pics... sell... buy LOASA stuff!

It may be a little more hassle but well worth it!

And it's nothing against FJ, it would be great to win a car! But insurance is too high and I have no need for one at uni!

Simon · 18-09-09, 02:55 PM

...meh

£5,000.02

Remember they dont have the car in their pocession yet, so it will be BRAND NEW out of the factory when you get it (after waiting a few months for the build) so value isnt depreciating now.
