A really nice car for a prize,though I think the insurance would be out of my league so the 40k would have to do!! Saying that,it is pretty hard to win with a 4 fold on it's own so the probability to win twenty in a row sounds virtually impossible even if you could be picking odds on favourites.

The odds on winning this prize are immense...
At the very best, your odds would be (1.2*1.2*1.2*1.2) to the power of 20....
So that's 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736 x 2.0736...
Which makes odds of 2,160,228.46201
Then you have to factor in that if a gambling site is offering odds of 1.2, the REAL chance of that event happening is going to be more like 1.8...
So the very best chance you can hope to have here is around three million to one...
If you were to put 5 lines on the UK Lottery, your odds of winning would be 2,800,000 to 1 and if you won you could buy over 50 of these cars, with money left over for insurance....
So a great gimmick to get people talking... but not really a very good promotion.

I sense if someone manages to pull this off it would have been rigged.....and I bet someone will win it so they can offer something again in the future and people will just waste more money trying at something that will never come to them!
