Default Any One Fancy A Delivery Miles Mg-zt For Easter??

GO TO ST1NG .COME AND ENTER OUR SPRING COMPETITION go on you know it makes sense......

www.st1ng.com





One beautiful MG-ZT sports car un-driven,un-used and still smelling of that factory smell inside...boasting CD player upgraded alloy wheels and all the unusual toys of the ZT.

Most of all under 000025 miles on the clock ..totally unused for the price of a ticket....may be the last chance to own a unused MGR product. As soon as the last ticket is sold...winner will be annouced. Mr Mike brown won last week a Aston Martin track day and so he is one very happy man....

MG

Due to commercial reasons exact number cannot be mentioned, however a fair few went over the week days...The car is planned to go on show at various road shows through out April 2010. So theres a indication mate.

The aim here is to ensure we can get the best prizes to the MGR fans and to also preserve what we have left to promote to the cars fan base.

Well done its a great idea to launch st1ng.com and give MG Rover fans a chance to win the last 'new cars' that they otherwise might not have been able to afford!

In my mind this is stopping some from buying tickets. What if the tickets have not all sold by, say, November? what happens then?

If the ticket sales do not reach the expected 1600 at all, will the draw take place or will ticket money be refunded

To me it has to have a deadline, either 1600 or a timescale

Thanks Rabbett.....


St1ng.com is about preserving what we have and making sure we can get what we need from the inner car circles.The whole concept is create a database to find and search for all things "British" within the motoring circles.

If ST1NG....

Can get some "brilliant" prizes to the fan base all the more the merrier!. The database which is in its infancy will get much much stronger over the next 4/5 weeks as we transfer more data into the system.

Thank you for your comments and i hope that WWW.ST1NG.COM
can help you find what your looking for along the way.

Hi Dave

First of all - there is no refund.............

Do you buy lottery ticket and ask for you money back if you don't win? No

Only 1600 tickets is not a lot considering the exposure this competition is getting through the owners clubs, MG-Rover,Org, MG Owners Club, etc etc. Tickets are selling like hot cakes, and in April we will be attending 4 major national car shows, the first of which - at Weston park in Staffordshire regularly attracts over 15,000 visitors, Pride of Longbridge and others scheduled for April will mean that many thousands of die-hard British Motoring enthusiasts will find out about this unique competition and have the opportunity to take part.

Someone suggested that we are making £16,000 profit, but don't forget, we've had to buy the car in the first place and secondly, the running costs of the site, ticket printing costs and legal advice to make sure this competition is run within the guidelines laid down by the Gaming commission all take a slice out of any profit there is in it for us.

That aside, we are all passionate about Rover and MG, and this provides an opportunity for someone to own an unused - Delivery Mileage - MG ZT for a tenner - I'd buy a shed load, except as the promoter of the competition I'm not allowed to, so come on guys, 1 in 1600 is far better odds than the 1 in 14,000,000 odds of winning the lottery.

I fully expect that all the tickets will be sold be the end of April, so don't miss out on this unique opportunity, it could be you............

Cheers Chums


Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I subscribed to Sting and £6 was sent via PayPal, did this £6 include a ticket for the prize car? If it did not how do I get a ticket?

Cheers

Mike

Well I would expect a refund if the lottery draw never took place

All i am doing is suggesting what may make people reluctant to purchase
