Coventry man wins six tickets to the UEFA Champions League final in Rome after test driving a Ford Transit

BRENTWOOD, United Kingdom – January 13, 2009: Coventry man, Ricky Fincher, 'struck gold' in September when he test drove a short wheelbase Ford Transit at his local dealership, Paynes of Hinckley. He and five relatives are now off to the UEFA Champions League Final in Rome in May.

The prize means they will spend one night in Milan before being chauffeured to Rome in a top-of-the-range Transit Tourneo. They will watch the final before flying back to the UK the following day.

With four British teams in the knockout stages, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool, there's a great chance that the winners will be watching a 'home' team in the final.

Ricky said:"I'll be taking close family with me as this turned out to be more diplomatic than trying to select five mates. I can't wait, it's the trip of a lifetime!"
