..and the photo is also better than average, but:

1) there's a dark line lh side - can't that be cloned out?
2) behind the car, the overbanding on the ground is quite distracting
3) the side window has diagonal dark lines showing through

without these I think it might be near perfection - but then you always expect a bit of customer quality control post build with any TVR I suppose!

Thanks for the feedback.

1. Dark line - Running diaganoly accross the screen? Thats the edge of the runway, could probably blend it.
2. Me no comprendez?
3. That'll be the Circular polarizer. 2 minute job, prob should have sorted it..whoops!

Very good, you never disappoint Dean smile

agree with the comments about the side window, but not the others.

Car is too small

Very unflattering angle - looks like some lax power sarfend special with bits tacked on at random

What TVR MKII ? - you don;t really think they are going to make them for delivery in Q1 2009

I think it’s a great pic. Great lighting. Perfect PC wallpaper, and would look great in a TVR brochure. scratchchin

Quite - and it looks like a hard-boiled egg that's been dropped.

They just employed me to shoot their car. Whether they are actually going build any 'proper' ones or not, I can't comment.

Totally disagree on the un-flattering angle (I think it looks great in side profile) and the car being so small, it was shot like this for a reason. Would be a pretty boring world though if we all liked the same things though eh!

I hope I wasn't being too harsh-sounding.

I actually think that is a very flattering angle, and it's a fine looking car well shown off here. If they get round to building it - yeah, we won't hold our breath! - good luck to them! Bit of an acquired taste/marmite-love-it-or-hate-it type thing going on with TVRs, and I know I blindly love them despite/because of all their qualities, good bad and other!


More shots please! smile
