Default Win Dick Johnsons own road car.
Coka Cola is running a compatition to win Dicks present DJR 320 supercharged road car.
Dick drove the car down from the Gold Coast to Herrod motorsport yesterday . The car has been left with us to give it the once over for the lucky prize winner.
Dick tells me that all you need to do is buy a bottle of coke to go into the drawn to win his own supercharged peice of history .

Is there a link anywhere for the competition? Would definitely be a pretty awesome prize just by getting a bottle of Coke! I take it Dick's car is/was one of those BA DJR 320s?

But have to agree with poly, if I was going to own a BA this would be it. No body has pictures of the car?

I don't care if it is a so called 2nd hand XR8 to some, I'm not concerned with keeping up with the Jones, it's still a fantastic prize to be won, you have to be in it to win it.

LOL to all the idiots here whinging about the promotion.

as if you would complain about being given the street car of a V8 supercar ledgend.

.

I can imagine the phone call now. "congratulations you've won dick johnsons supercharged XR8 in our competition", "Pfft it's second hand and I'll have to check with my sister/wife to see what she wants to do"

That is discrimination against people that don't drink Coke...or any of that foul sugar-water...

Seriously, who wouldn't want a free car?

Waste of time comment, does every thread have to turn negative here?

If it was this car i would, this car will become a collectors car and will be worth more than any GS in years to come.
