RAC Inside Lane Winter Competition

Brrrrrrrr! It is sure getting cold out there and as the dark nights come upon us our attention turns to winter. Even here at Inside Lane we have to think about essentials to take with us on road test for this time of year. Obviously breakdown cover is one such essential as the last thing you want is to be stranded out in the cold with a car that is throwing 101 problems at you.

This winter we are teaming up with the RAC to bring you a competition well worth entering! Prizes consisting of RAC “winter driving kits” that are worth £19.99 each as well as digital tyre pressure gauges. The kit in particular includes; de-icer, screen wash, foil blanket, microfibre demist pad, antibacterial hand wipes, wind up torch and an ice scraper. Sounds like it’s worth a punt doesn’t it? So this is all you have to do to enter…

 

Take a picture of your car and in one line sum up why you bought it. Simple! It can be any car, boring or interesting, but a good one-liner could just be your secret to success. Just E-Mail your image and caption to: [email protected]

Below is an example just in case you are in any doubt.

Aston Martin One-77 Road Debut

The embodiment of Aston Martin Power, beauty and soul today came into contact with the outside world today whilst carrying precious cargo in the form of the Tourist Trophy. A completed Aston Martin One-77 embarked on its first road-trip from the RAC Club in London to the world renowned Silverstone Grand Prix circuit.

Forged mainly from carbon fibre and given a 7.3 litre heart crafted by the most talented engineers, the One-77 is the ultimate Aston Martin! This car only exists because the employees of Aston Martin wanted it so badly; they worked after the lights had gone out in the factory just to fabricate the idea into a reality.

The interior is made of the most modern yet complimenting materials. The centre console looks like it has leaked into the cabin from the engine in an offering to the driver. Every detail in this car is to the millimetre satisfactory. It’s not over lording; it’s not blingy or anything that a footballer or R&B star would “roll in” as there is a very good reason why… The car would upstage Elvis, Michael Jackson and Queen all at the same time and thus make mince-meat of any overpaid premiership participants.

This car is no fairy-tale, and for that reason does not have a happy ending. There will only be 77 made. All are sold and are expected to be delivered to their owners later this year.
