Goodwood Tickets Auction
 
This prize (tickets for the Goodwood Festival of Speed) arrived a little late, so is now up for auction in aid of Richard's prostate cancer charity.

Want to know more? http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/News/Se...-2014-preview/

What's on offer?

2 Admission Tickets for Sunday 29th June
2 Lunch Tickets at Goodwood House, served at 1pm
Car Parking is apparently free.


Obviously the winner will need to make their own way there, no accommodation or travel costs included.

You will need to show your Audi car key to gain access to the Audi Pavilion.

Auction rules:

1. Open to all A8 Parts Forum members
2. To bid, simply copy and paste the bid list below, in this thread, and add yours (forum name) with the amount you want to bid. Bids in any other format will be ignored.
3. Bidding ends at midnight on Sunday 22 June. Bids timed after that, by the forum, will be ignored.

Happy bidding! +++

I was going to go, and already had the offer of tickets elsewhere, but will now be in Glasgow that weekend...:-(. One of the few weekends when I'll wish I was somewhere else than Glasgow..:(

I'm already going to the moving motor show on the Thursday or I'd have had a go at them too! +++. It's a great day out that's for sure!

I fancied a bid on that - unfortunately im off on holiday next week.

Good luck to all bidders +++

Well, we didn't get many bids (probably because the first 2 were so high), but we did get a great result.

It's complicated, but here goes...

Sarg (Steve) bid £100 and then Steamship (Sean) bid £150. But then Sean told me he couldn't go, but wanted to donate £150 anyway. So he suggested that, if he won the auction, he'd let Steve have the tickets for his (Steve's) £100 bid and still donate £150. And I said I'd chip in £50 (but I can't remember why!). :o

So, 2 bids and we raised £300! +++

Donations are direct to Richard's Just Giving site if anyone else wants to add to this worthy cause: https://www.justgiving.com/THTC2014

Thanks guys!

You guys are awesome.. I'd need to total it up, but pretty sure you've raised about £1000 between the donations, the raffle and the Goodwood tickets

With the Gift Aid, we're sitting at around £1700 total, about three times what we set out to raise. Still awestruck with the generosity shown.
