Andrew Williams, 62, from Stalybridge, scooped an £80,000 prize bundle in an online raffle run by BOTB, including a brand-new Volkswagen Golf GTE and £40,000 in cash.

He had been hoping to win a car for his son Alfie, who had just passed his driving test days before the surprise win.

Mr Williams, who runs a family-owned delicatessen, was at work when BOTB presenter Nicole Jeffery arrived to break the news.

He said: "I've been playing for months, trying to win a car for my son, who's been learning to drive.

"On Friday, he passed his test, so I'd absolutely love the car to go to Alfie.

"I'm a petrolhead and I love having a go. It's a challenge.

"I've been playing BOTB for such a long time, so to finally win is just incredible.

"I don't know what to say. I can't believe this day is here."

The win was made even more special by the timing.

Alfie said: "I feel amazing. It doesn't feel real.

"That's the luck of the draw."

Mr Williams had previously tried to win a Porsche for himself before switching to a car for his son once Alfie started learning to drive.

He was visibly emotional when Ms Jeffery led him outside to reveal the car.

His wife and son were present for the surprise.

The celebration continued when Mr Williams learned about the additional £40,000 prize hidden in the boot.

Ms Jeffery said: "Andrew's reaction was absolutely brilliant.

"You could see just how much this meant to him, particularly because he'd been playing for so long and had come so close before.

"What made this win even more special was the reason he was playing.

"Andrew had been hoping to win a car for his son Alfie, and to find out that Alfie had passed his driving test just a few days before we arrived was incredible timing.

"It really felt like everything had fallen into place."

Mr Williams said the following day that he and his family were still in shock.

He plans to use part of the cash prize to make Christmas extra special and to fund a family holiday.

BOTB, founded in 1999, has given away £176 million-worth of cars so far.
