Matthew wins dream car

On top of the Audi RS6, Matthew Wesley has also won £20,000 cash through car competition BOTB which will be used to extend his Florida honeymoon with teacher wife Emma once it is rescheduled.

Matthew, 33, was given the shock of his life by BOTB presenter Christian Williams when he called him to reveal that he was this week’s winner.

“This is an absolute shock,” said the 33-year-old.

“I have only been playing BOTB for a couple of weeks after seeing the RS6 on there.

“It’s my dream car and to win it is just incredible.”

Being an engineer, Matthew has always had a passion for engines, but he is most passionate about cars.

“I am a tinkerer, which isn’t surprising given my career,” he said.

“I’ve just put the engine to our Mini back together, although the chances are I will be trading that in now I have the RS6.”

Matthew and Emma married in 2018 and were all set to travel to Florida for a couple of weeks, but the recent pandemic has meant they had to cancel.

“We will be going, it’s just a matter of when,” said Matthew. What we can do now we have the extra money is look at extending the trip and taking a few extra places; who knows we could even hire some American muscle to drive.”

BOTB presenter Christian Williams surprises winners all over the world every week, although during coronavirus he will be doing surprises through Facetime rather than visiting the winners on their doorsteps.

“Making people’s dreams come true is what we are all about, and to be able to deliver Matthew with his absolute dream car, as well as enabling him and Emma to extend their delayed honeymoon is brilliant,” said Christian.

“I know Matthew is going to love the Audi RS6, and I wish him and Emma all the very best for an amazing time when they are able to go on their trip.”

Since being founded in 1999, BOTB has given away over £32m worth of prizes.
