“I’ve played for it nearly every week. I’ve always loved it but I didn’t think I’d ever own one, it’s just amazing that I’ve won one.”
BOTB was founded by William Hindmarch in 1999 and has handed over the keys to more than £22m worth of supercars.

And it wasn’t just Andy who has lost for words, his wife Tracy, who helped plan the surprise and kept it a secret from Andy for more than 12 hours, couldn’t believe her husband’s luck.
“Andy was planning on going to work today but I talked him out of it by saying it was too hot and our son, Jenson, will be going back to school soon,” laughed Tracy.
