The final draw of Hunter’s heat seekers competition was held at Cresta Lodge on Saturday and Mompati Kepaletswe won a Volkswagen Polo GTI after beating 10 other finalists.

Ten identical keys were availed for each finalist but it was Kepaletswe’s lucky day as his key opened the car valued at P298,000. The 50-year-old simply bought a twelve pack of hunters at Mafenyatlala in Molepolole and months later he reaped even more from Hunter’s.

The man could not hide his happiness as he sat in the driver’s seat of his brand new car popularly nicknamed as Vrrr Phaa in the streets because of the sound it produces in the exhaust. In an interview with Showtime, Kepaletswe said he does not even drink alcohol but at the time he was buying the 12 pack for a friend. The man who was alongside his wife when winning the speedy German car said it was the grace of God. “I am speechless and I don’t even know whether to keep or sell it,” he said.
