Hide AdJasper Hemsworth, 21, scooped the 199mph Maserati GranTurismo Trofeo as an “Early Bird Prize” in an Omaze Million Pound House Draw - for £20.
Its Twin-turbo 3.0 V6 engine uses Formula 1-derived technology and produces an impressive 550PS with a whopping 650Nm of torque.
Jasper, from Devon, works at his local Asda, as well as volunteering at a local primary school as his dream is to become a teacher one day.

Hide AdHe said: “When Omaze called to tell me I’d won the car, I was surprised and dubious in equal measure, but once it started to sink in, I knew I was going to have to keep it. It's just so beautiful and well made, a real delight to own.
“I didn’t actually have time to celebrate as I had a shift at Asda starting in an hour. I won’t be taking my new car to work as a Maserati might look a little out of place in the Asda car park!
“I want to keep it for special occasions and road trips abroad across Europe with my family. We will do a proper grand tour in it as that's what it's made for after all!”
