Win a Chevrolet Captiva scratch car(d)!

One lucky scratcher will walk away with a Chevrolet Captiva SUV when they reveal a winning panel on the world’s first ‘scratch car-d’.
The scratch car-d (see what they did there) is covered in silver latex of the kind usually found on idiot-tax scratch cards. Underneath are thousands of panels, with one containing the winning symbol.
The ‘Scratch Car-d’ was unveiled in London’s Covent Garden on a bed of 16,995 pennies, which adds up to £169.95. The Chevrolet Captiva costs £16,995.
Chevrolet’s Les Turton commented: “You’ve been able to scratch to win a car before, but using a vehicle as an actual scratch card is certainly a first and it could take 14 hours of scratching.
“The Captiva is set to be one of the best value for money SUV’s on the market, but the fact that a lucky participant is only one scratch away from winning the car represents even better value.”
