SUPER CAR UP FOR GRABS IN NEW TOP TRUMPS PROMOTION AT SHELL SERVICE STATIONS

A Ferrari, a Porsche or a TVR?

It’s a tough choice but one that will have to be made at the forthcoming The Sunday Times Motor Show Live by the winner of Shell UK Limited’s Top Trumps promotion that hits close to 1,000 forecourts nationwide from 26 February.

The winner, who will select the £100,000 Super Car at the show, has to collect a full set of
24 Top Trump cards that will be given away by Shell with any purchase of Optimax fuel (no purchase necessary – see leaflets instore for details). The structure of the promotion is such that there’s bound to be at least one winner, and possibly as many as three!

The promotion runs until 21 April, giving customers plenty of time to build up their collection of the 24 different cars, all of which will be on display at the show.

The packs will also include 100,000 invitations to the Motropolis Live Action Arena at the show, worth £7.50 each (entrance ticket to show still required).

John Rasmussen, Shell UK & Ireland retail director, said: ‘Top Trumps was one of the great games of the 70s and 80s, and our customers will love collecting and playing with the cards. The promotion that ran in the build up to the 2002 Motor Show was a huge success, with the winner driving off in a Lexus LS 430.’

The Sunday Times Motor Show Live takes place at the Birmingham NEC from 27 May to
6 June. For more information and to book tickets now, visit www.motorshowlive.com

Aw, don't tell me that. Now I have to move the UK.

[jon_s]

hehe, I always use shell.............they had a similar thing on before, time to collect them cards!

[gis]

ah you mean the match the tyre with the car thing jon?

for sum reason the shell garages here have all been bought by texaco now and the only place for me to get optimax if i want it is to go on the motorway for about 4 mile and off at the service station near me,lol

[jon_s]

yeah that is the one...car/typre match. Never did get anything lol

I have an abundance of shell garages near me....a total of 3 within 5 mis of my house!

lol i never got anythin either,got various X5's and needed a michelin tyre to match it i think it was.never did get it.

[jon_s]

We should start a pool:

i.e all UK people using Sell, say what cards they have, and if two people can match up, get the car and...............er...............humm.......sell it and split the money (after a good drive or two )

At least it would increase one's chance of winning.

this is just plain stupid, similar to the lottery which banks on high odds and the dreams of suckers willing to participate in these wastes of time.

easier and more fruitfull to work hard and earn it.

like jabba, i think.

[jon_s]

Jabba has indeed worked hard, and I have hardly sat on my arse

well buying petrol is a usual thing,gettin a chance of winnin a car is a bonus.no extra cost,just buy petrol and get a free chance.so i dont see why the agry attitude about it

oh i misunderstood, i thought there was anadditional charge that would get you in the drawing.

sorry my stupid mistake. ops: ops:
