This is crazy!' Moment ecstatic Scots lad finds out he's won £50k BMW and £10k cash
Aug 2020
A Lanark 21-year-old worked away for hours with his phone in his van completely unaware he had just won £10,000 and a brand-new BMW.
Clueless Robert Lawson was busy working as a plasterer when he scooped the prize of a BMW M2 plus the cash prize.
Competition runners at BOTB tried for hours to get ahold of Robert with the exciting news but his phone was locked away in his van.
A video shows Robert unable to contain his shock in the moment he found out.
The surprise was even more special as it comes just days before his 22 birthday.
He said: “I was so confused when I got back to the van and my phone had all these missed calls. Then to find out it was Christian from BOTB, I was just so shocked!”
His new dream car is an upgrade from his Vauxhall Corsa and worth more than £50,000.
“It’s all just so unreal,” he said. “I chose the BMW because my brother-in-law’s got one and I just love it. The noise they make is incredible.”
Christian Williams from BOTB delivered the dream car and then opened the boot to reveal £10,000 in cash.
Since being founded in 1999 by William Hindmarch, BOTB has given away over £34m worth of prizes, including supercars, cash and holidays.
Christian Williams said: “Robert was a bit difficult to get hold of but once we managed to speak to him it was clear to see how delighted he was. He’s chosen a fantastic car and I hope he enjoys it!”
