Hello to all PH Veterans I am trying to make my own website to do with brokering luxury vehicles I wrote to Aston Martin to use there nicely photo shopped picture of a V12 Vantage and got a nice reply of no you cant use our image bla bla bla not very nice. I am looking for some help from people with nice cars all I require is a photo of something nice that I can use on my site as a background image but will play an essential part of the site. Everyone loves there cars being looked at so if anyone has a photo preferably side on with not too busy a background I would be over the moon if I could use it. A couple of my friends have said I can take photo's of there cars but any help would be brilliant.

Thanks in advance!

Here's my Lexus LS400, the Japanese Rolls Royce. It's painted with electrical tape, but don't let that put you off showcasing it:

Any use?




I know its "just a rover" but being one of the rare V8 models, proper petrolheads would notice!

If I were you I'd be contacting some of the posters on the Supercars Spotted thread. Some amazing cars (and photography) on there.

Always seem to have one of his photos on at least one of the computers/tablets/phones. Might be worth getting in contact with?

Sure, they're a small company called "Crap Wraps". You can have a choice of midnight black, new horizon white or if ebay China has it in stock; crimson red. The best part about their wraps is that it's guaranteed to remove half your paint, making the next wrap easier to apply.

Wow crap wraps sounds awesome I've always wondered what happened when you take a wrap off now I know it makes it easier to do the next one I can get it done! I take it this 'company' have great reviews?

Not so much "great reviews", more a "very limited quantity of reviews".

Might be worth messaging GFWilliams on here, he takes some fantastic pictures: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/profile.asp?mem...

ETA: Or have a poke around this thread and ask people's permission there: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=121...

Mine is number 881 and the highest spec out of the last 3 made. I have only had it a couple of months myself but if I do think about selling I will drop you a PM.
