Hurry, Last Chance to WIN and Blaze Your Trail
By Dave Carey
Blazing a trail can be a tricky process; there’s the timing, the supplies and, of course, a bit of luck. Mater Cars for Cancer will cater the supplies for one lucky winner, that being a 300-series LandCruiser VX with $138,431 worth of modifications, and a slimline Lifestyle Campers Fusionn Hypercamper, along with $75K cashable gold bullion to cover supplies (and more).
The luck can be problematic; it’s so much easier not to bother. Just, you know, keep doing what you’re doing, following the established paths in life. But if you didn’t have to, would you? Although there’s only one prize and the winner takes all, ticket holders who purchase three or more tickets are eligible to win a $5000 gift card, so that sweetens the deal. The timing, of course, is up to you but you’ll need to be prudent as tickets, as always, are selling fast.
If you win a modified 300-series LandCruiser VX, you’ll receive the utmost in 21st century off-roading luxury and capability, with features other LandCruiser owners could only dream of. Valued at $114,260 before it is modified, the 3.3 litre twin turbo diesel 4WD won’t leave you stranded on the dusty trail, whether it’s been previously blazed or not, and if the rough stuff gets tricky, the four-inch lift, remote controller shockers, trans cooler and dyno tune will get you through. The mods are so comprehensive that at $138,431, including a wagon-to-dual-cab conversion and alloy camper canopy, actually dwarfs the purchase price of the 300-series LandCruiser.
Behind it will be the $89,985 Lifestyle Campers Fusionn Hypercamper, a nimble, 20-foot luxury hideout with a queen-sized pillow top bed and stacked bunk option for those mini-trailer blazers you take with you (or your regular-sized mates). Finished in black plate all round, with bash bars and reinforcing, and running on fully independent, heavy-duty suspension, it’s low slung, pop-topped and set up for off-grid camping. Inside, it looks a million bucks thanks to the MeanderWild styling pack worth $5,000.
So, you’ve sat down with your fellow inmates; your partner, your kids, your parents or your mates, and you’ve worked out that the great escape from the doldrums just isn’t possible, not this week anyway. Maybe soon, maybe next year. Work, job, life, responsibilities; they all keep us imprisoned in the humdrum of daily routine. Mater Cars for Cancer lottery No. 120 can deliver you from that if you’re holding the winning ticket.
Life is full of lotteries, and cancer is one of them. For some, it’s almost a foreign concept; their friends and family barely skirting the illness over their lifetimes. That’s great, but they’re the lucky ones. For others, like me for instance, cancer has stricken many, and it’s been a hell of a journey. During those times though, I’ve been reassured by organisations like Mater Foundation, whose good work in the fields of funding research and support is invaluable, and that work is only made possible by you.
