A BENTLEY truck driver who dubbed himself ‘Bentley’s biggest bogan’ has broken down after coming forth to claim his $1 million Lotto win.

The man came forward to claim his winnings after taking a share in last week’s Wednesday Lotto draw.

“I don’t usually shop at Newsextra in Bentley but there’s a ripper bakery around the corner and I fancied a steak and cheese pie,” he said.

“It’s proof that you should never stop thinking with your stomach.”

The man said he would use his winnings to purchase a home after renting for the past 20 years.

“It’ll be straight to the pool room with the winning ticket,” he said.

“I’ll get a specky frame for it and all.”

Lotterywest spokeswoman Chloe Lawler said the truckie broke down while being escorted to the organisation’s winners’ room.
