That’s the best £2 Harry has ever spent ...
NEVER mind the bride getting to the church on time, a groom-tobe definitely will be … unless he’s tempted to take his new wheels for a spin.
Harry Baker is the proud owner of a brand-new Porsche 911. And it was a bargain as it cost him just £2.
Not only did he scoop the flash set of wheels, but there was a cool £20,000 in the boot.
Last week, the 28-year-old from Charvil was surprised by BOTB presenter Christian Williams who popped round to give him the new motor.
He had entered the company’s Dream Car Competition, and hit the jackpot on just his second time of playing.
The moment was captured on video by the BOTB team, and Harry couldn’t believe his luck.
“No way,” he said, almost speechless. “Oh my days!”
Harry, who works as a quality control manager at GSK, said he’s a huge Porsche fan: “I’ve always been into Porsches, I get it from my Dad.
“I’ve got a 2008 Porsche Cayman at the moment which I will probably give to my dad now.”
Holding back the tears he added: “This is unbelievable, I’m shaking. And what perfect timing ready for the summer.”
But it wasn’t just the car that Harry won as he also scooped £20,000 cash as part of the prize.
“That will pay for the wedding,” he laughed, revealing he’s planning to wed his fiancee Catherine, 28, next year. “It will definitely go to the wedding and honeymoon fund - hopefully we can go somewhere a bit more luxurious now like the Maldives.”
BOTB’s Christian said: “Harry played for a fantastic prize and I’m so excited for him. A new Porsche, wedding and a honeymoon to the Maldives? He is certainly in for an exciting couple of years.
“Have the best time, Harry.”
BOTB awards two cars each week as well as a ‘lifestyle’ prize. Recent winners have bagged a quad bike and a holiday to the Arctic. Since being founded in 1999 by William Hindmarch, it has given away more than £47million worth of vehicles.
