Rugby care worker Garry Holland-Spencer was stunned when BOTB turned up to his workplace to reveal he’d won a £40k Porsche and £15k in cash
A care worker from Rugby has won a Porsche and a briefcase filled with cash after spending just six pence on an online prize draw.
Garry Holland-Spencer was hard at work at Wolston Grange Care home in Wolston when a film crew from the dream car giveaway company BOTB turned up to surprise him.
Katie Knight, the firm's presenter, dragged him away from his duties to present him with a bright yellow Porsche Cayman, a car worth £40,000.
Gary's colleagues watched from one of the home's bay windows as Katie led him to the car and handed him the keys.
"Oh my God, it's beautiful, it's really nice, I feel a bit shocked really", Gary said, as he sat in his new sports car for the first time.
"My only concern is the insurance and things, that's the only thing", he admitted to Katie, who had one more surprise to spring on him.
She said: "Well, we might be able to help you with that and a little bit more, because there's also something else you've won.
"You've also won £15,000 in cash. Tax-free cash, for 6p. Is that not the best 6p you've ever spent?"
Although Gary, a Porsche fan who has worked for Pinnacle Care at Wolston Grange for over 20 years, was smitten with the car, he told Katie he is tempted to take the cash alternative.
The money, he explained, would be saved up and used for a property investment.
BOTB gives away dream cars every week, and the latest car up for grabs is a £59,000 Mercedes AMG GT S with tickets priced at just 7p.
The company also gives away cash and lifestyle prizes, and the biggest prize currently available on the BOTB website is a fully furnished four-bedroomed house in Devon worth £695,0000 - and tickets are just 95p
