never won anything in my life.
when i ordered the focus, i was entered into a competition to be the 'face of ford'.
i get professional photo's of me taken (got some done today, proper modelling style :lol) round my place of work and will be put up everywhere (billboards, posters etc advertising ford obviously)!!
i'm also in the ford employee magazine this month looking like a retard 
but i got given this today by the advertising guy, such a nice suprise as i didn't expect it one bit!
something a bit different but i always wanted a nice ford jacket. now i have a rally one to take to meets 
glad i've got it as the weather is shite at the moment

Please don't wear that jacket when driving the car...
My dad has a Porsche jacket and when he takes the 911 out, he looks a bit too much of an anorak! 
It will be the same for you!

Is that all you get? A jacket?
Not bad considering how much a proper model would cost them for the job I suppose. Fair play on 'winning' tho.

nah i got loads of pics taken of me aswell, god knows if i get anything else, they aren't saying much at all at the minute.
they don't want proper models, they wanted ford employees to show the world how it is behind closed doors. so you see all the engines being made in the factory etc with a pic of me standing there looking an idiot
