PAINT A CAR AND WIN PRIZES!

Ever fancied covering a car with paint just for fun? Well now you can, as this year, Arnold Clark launches its online game, ‘Arnold’s Paintball CARnage’, on the 22nd December 2010. Designed by four, aspiring young game designers aged 14 from St Columba’s High School, the game is exciting, fun and will have you playing it over and over again to see if you can get the best score and win a prize.

With the biggest Real Savings at stake, players use colourful paintballs to hit targets above cars and are awarded with the best discount. The light hearted, comical styled game is stimulating and requires a certain level of skill to aim the paintballs and gain the biggest savings. You can challenge yourself and others to Arnold’s Paintball CARnage for your chance to win an iPad, Nintendo Wii or Sat Nav by achieving the highest score!

Nicky Jamieson, Ciaran Clifford, Michael Houlihan and Michael Speirs won the Arnold Clark Scottish Schools’ Challenge and won a minibus for 2 years, 4 MacBooks and £10,000 for their school and were invited to London to see their game being created. The young computing academics collaborated with award winning games creator Lightmaker and are delighted with the results.

Sir Arnold Clark, chairman and chief executive said, “We have been thrilled with the response to the Schools’ Challenge and the quirky idea that the pupils submitted. Our Real Sale game works along the same principles as Arnold’s Paintball CARnage. The game is very simple and consists of a forecourt full of cars all with fantastically low prices. The idea is hit the cars with paintballs to get the biggest saving as possible within the set time limit. “

Impressed by the Scottish pupils, Arnold Clark will be running the competition again in May 2011. Incredible prizes up to the value of £50,000 such as a Mini Bus for your school, MacBooks, iPads and a trip to London are all up for grabs.
