A nursery teacher from Portsmouth was left stunned after a £3.15 competition entry saw her win a Lamborghini Huracan and £20,000 in cash
A nursery school teacher from Portsmouth has just won a £130,000 Lamborghini and £20,000 cash after spending just £3.15 on a spot the ball competition.
Sharon Hoskins, who works at the Alver Valley Family Centre in Gosport, had to look at a photo from a sporting moment where the ball has been removed and try to guess its exact position. Her guess was pixel-perfect, winning her the top prize.
The bright orange Lamborghini Huracan was delivered to her nursery school by a film crew from BOTB, the dream car giveaway company, and presenter Christian Williams sprung the surprise on her.
"Oh my God", she exclaimed. "Thank you so much, can I go and see it?
"I feel absolutely gobsmacked, I can't bear going back to work."
Christian then invited her to start up her new 610bhp supercar and give it a rev. "I'm not sure what my neighbours are going to think when I pull up in this", she giggled. "I can't see out of the front, though", she admitted.
Sharon jumped as she revved the V10 engine and heard the huge exhausts popping away. But another shock was about to come, as Christian presented her with a briefcase containing £20,000 in cash.
As well as the cash bonus prize, all BOTB dream car winners are offered a cash alternative instead of taking the car.
Sharon told the team she was minded to take the cash, which she said would change her life.
She said: "It's amazing. We've been saving for a holiday, my son will be having a new car because he's taking his test in January, so I'll buy him a new car.
"And also I need a lot of work done in the house, so that's all paid for now. It's amazing, thank you so much".
As well as giving away dream cars and lifestyle prizes, BOTB is currently raffling off a £695,000 luxury house in Devon, with tickets costing just £95p.
Among the latest dream cars to play for is a £74,000 Aston Martin - and tickets are just 10p.
