The Tank Museum Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 One generous bidder has claimed the ride of a lifetime in The Tank Museum's VCC Appeal Tiger Auction. The winner will be climbing into the commander’s seat of Tiger 131 at Tiger Day in March where, as Premium Ticket holders for the event, they will also be treated to talks, `turret tours` and the opportunity to see the Workshops where the restoration work was carried out. Communications Manager Nik Wyness said; “The winning bidder has secured a fantastic and unique prize, and we are very grateful for his generosity. His winning £3,500 bid makes a significant contribution to the £25,000 VCC appeal which was launched in October.” The auction result takes the current appeal total to just under £10,000. “This is a fantastic achievement after just two months and I would like to sincerely thank all those who have contributed to the Appeal so far,” Nik added. We are also holding a raffle to win a ride in Tiger 131! Thousands of tickets have been issued through Tank Times, Britain At War and Military Machines International and we have a quantity of books remaining. Each book contains 5 tickets, each ticket is just £2. If you would like some, please email: fundraising@tankmuseum.org , with the number of books and your postal address.
