Valtra Vin to Win Winners Announced
22nd October 2021
Thank you to everyone who took part in the Valtra Vin to Win instant win games over the past six months and helped make this campaign such a success!
We are excited to announce that Christoph Brunner, from Austria, is the winner of the #VinToWin Big Prize Draw. His Valtra 6350hi-tech will be treated to a full refurbishment later this year, as the expert team at the Valtra site in Suolahti use Genuine AGCO Parts to restore it to factory condition, in partnership with Nokia Tyres.
Christoph told us: “I was very happy, almost speechless, when I heard that I’d won the main prize of the competition. I’ve never won anything and now I am going to have my old tractor shipped to the Valtra site in Finland to have it fully refurbished! This Valtra has been in our family since its first hour of operation and has now been running for 9,500 hours. I think it deserves an uplift and a “fresh start”. I really look forward to the return of the tractor!”
While there could only be one winner of the Valtra Ultimate Refurb prize, we also gave away three much-coveted 412-piece workshop trolleys! Our lucky runner up winners Maria Manner, Jan From and Hannu Lahti, from Finland, will each receive the ‘Premium’ trolley, an eight-drawer Valtra unit worth over £3,200 and fully stocked with screwdrivers, sockets, wrenches and more.
We caught up with winner Jan From and his wife Annina who own a small horse farm in Loviisa, southern Finland. Jan told us how much he enjoyed playing the online games – he’d completed a few in the hope of winning some Valtra overalls, so receiving the ‘Premium’ workshop trolley was fantastic news! The trolley and its complete set of tools will be put to good use straight away as Jan is about to start a loader repair.
