Brand new car up for grabs - all you have to do is find the buried keys

Many people are having to dig deep to meet the rising costs of living. But thanks to a newly launched competition, that could be just the way to bag themselves a brand new car.

All entrants need to do is find the location of the keys and be the first to dig them up. And the winner will be driving home in a brand new petrol-powered Fiat 500, worth over £12,000.

Anyone wishing to take part needs to keep an eye on the Scrap Car Comparison website. The keys are buried somewhere in the UK and the clues to their location will go live at 9am on Tuesday, October 18.

The clues will refer to a unique combination of three words. Those taking part need to decipher each clue to pinpoint the exact location of the keys, using the popular what3words app.

Dan Gick, managing director of Scrap Car Comparison said: "We found that over a fifth of drivers are feeling stressed about car costs every single week, but in a society where owning a car can be essential for so many, this stress can be inescapable.

"It goes without saying that one of the biggest costs when it comes to car ownership, is paying for the car itself. We come across many people that have had to scrap their car for various reasons, but are left finding it difficult to get a wallet-friendly replacement that won’t break down on them.

"With all of this in mind, we wanted to give someone the chance to become the owner of a brand new, and importantly, reliable car - for absolutely free. We also felt the treasure hunt was the perfect way to do this, as it should give people some fun, in these not-so enjoyable times”.
