Has anyone played BOTB?

Is it a scam?

Not a scam nope! Played it twice but not really into it tbh mate! You can get some offers on £2.50 tickets, it's a usual lotto thing, odds are against but people do win!

Thanks man. I've never played it, but it looks quite unbelievable (like a scam) as they're giving away a McLaren and other expensive cars.

Online loads will say it's a scam, it does look like one. However Google will say anything is someone loses! It's not easy to win and you have to be pixel perfect on your choices etc.

It's far from easy to ever win, which is why people don't buy into it. It's still played by hundreds of thousands of people - hence they can afford the luxury cars!

I wouldn't do it again though!

I play it from time to time, there is a thread on pistonheads where 5 people have won over the years, a colleague of my Sister In Law won a Cayman last year so it's definitely not a scam.

Not a scam, but just like any gambling it could be addictive. I'd probably steer clear if you are unsure enough to be asking on here

Played it a few times.

A few years back they had a stand set up in Bluewater or Lakeside, can't remember which one. They had a Nissan GTR parked next to the stand so I had a few goes at a discount rate.
Also played it online a couple of times.

Never won anything and still get spammed by them on a weekly basis.

Played it a couple of times when they were giving away tickets as a promo. And fat kid 1 wanted an RS

Quite tricky to win as said above you have to be almost pixel perfect

They obviously make more on the tickets than the cars cost looking at their expansion.

Played it on and off for years.

With plenty of consideration and a fair bit of experience, you can usually get close enough to get game credits, which with the usual multi-ticket discounts and special offers means that once a month I spend £10 more or less hopefully winning a top notch motor.

Not a scam at all, although just like the lottery and premium bonds I don't think I'll ever win. But you've got to be in it to win it.
