So... billboard hunters. What makes/models have you spotted? We could knock up a list to help out readers of the thread.
For example, I know mazda are running a 0% campaign for the 2 at the moment - not sure if they have any billboards up though with them in that snazzy green colour?

Been out for a drive, only proper billboard I saw with a car on was for a Honda CRV in the arse end of Derby. Was hoping for something on the Toyota stand at Pride park but they had 2 Toyota 'legends' posters, one with an Auris, one with a Carina E! No Celica's  No Volvo ones either...

Anyone from/near Tamworth, Staffs? There's always a car billboard near the Heartlands Ford garage, the road is Saxon Drive. Last time I saw it I think it was a Corsa. I'll be going down that road tomorrow so will have a look.

Really frustrating, I have seen a newer model of my car on a billboard close to my home in the last week. I've been trying to remember where though!  ETA Remembered at midnight, went out and said billboard is now a Kia Cee'd

Yeti isn't arriving until mid Aug, else we'd be in for a win with the Cambridge spot. Five vehicles to choose from - but not a lot of billboards round my manor.

Tesco (Banbury) - Audi A1 & VW Tiguan Not much chance of finding a Volvo one here as the nearest Vovlo dealer is 25 miles away, or does that just show a lack of commitment!!

Back in the days someone may have painted a massive billboard black and then wrote the name of the local pirate radio station in white, i hear that it only took a couple of hours under the cover of darkness.....

Does it count if i 'borrow' someone elses car and then go take picture of relevant billboard??
Another thought was that we use CRV's at work, though they are liveried up and i'm not sure it would go down too well if pictures of them started popping up on PH...
