It seems the weather has a marked impact on the number of photographs we are getting posted on the site - I guess there is some benefit to living in sunny spain I suppose.

If I went out to photograph my car now it would be covered in nice layer of salt and grime from the roads!

Pheeew,


Yet again I put on my sunglasses before opening up the page, but to my amazment, V6 GTO did not dazzle me with that terquoise blinding light, but instead it teased my eyes with a warming blue/grey emission.



Nice pic M.

Is there even anyone on here called Kelvin?

If you are going to have a dirt encrusted car, at least make it a classy one



Colour temp for a normal Sodium lamps is 2100-2200, but they can be anywhere between 2000 and 3500.

You might at least have parked it so that all four wheels are on the road Martin.

I don't know, Noble owners eh!

[GetCarter]

...and I'm interested to know what Kelvin Martin's car is

I got bored with my car last week so went out and bought another which I pick up today - I'll try and take some pics before it gets coated in cow poo - which covers the entire road network round here, and spotwelds itself onto the paintwork.

...having said that... it looks like it's going to rain

Nothing so exotic - common as muck in fact - I need four proper seats in this one.

Well it's rubbish weather out there... so decent pics were not an option... but a few snippets just for the hell of it. I do love shiny exhaust pipes!



and wheels





ok... and lights

Hey, how have you managed to get the car dirty so quickly!? You've only had the thing 5 minutes! Got a bit more grime on mine but it's about 6 weeks worth!

Edit: Actually looking out of the office window it's a lot dirtier
Nice pics GetCarter!

Someone seems to have conned you into getting a Bleedin' Munich Wagon. I notice you haven't been able to get a shot of the fabled mythological indicator stalk! More difficult than the aurora borealis to shoot, I shouldn't wonder!



PS you've left your lights on - I hope the front fogs work OK and have not burnt out from use!
