Sorry, but i thinik it's pointless buying a 3.5 litre sports car and expecting micra type mpg, it's just fuel, fill her up and have some fun. Sometimes i only get about 17 to the gallon, but i dont give a damn, i bought the car to have fun in, not worry about fuel costs just enjoy it

As above, cracking wheel for the Zed

Awesome matey, awesome Sats

Ok matey, jeez, you live in a nice part of the world, love taking photo's around the Lake District, Aira Force is beautifull. Ian Yes very lucky, my wife is well into the photo thing, give me a shout if you are about and I will get her to take us to some of the less known spots. Taken some great photos of my 5 zeds around the Lakes Cheers Martin, may well do that Ian

Ok Martin, just for you matey taken at the side of the house, just like the snowy one,except in the summer, that IS real snow on the other shot Ian

I agree that photoshop is fantastic and has its uses, I just personally think that a good photo is made up of a good car, surroundings and a keen eye for a photo. Photoshopping pics of cars is a bit of a false economy. The car looks good but the reality is a million milesaway. As i said, before, things like this are done for two reasons, one for fun, and two, to brush up you'r skills at photoediting, there are millions of photographers every day, rely on an editing package for their livelyhoods, so why can't the man in the street have a bit of fun without beeing told, they are not real people, or use real gear, which is offensive. Every one to their own opinion, i for one will continue to do both, and don't care what other NORMAL people think, no offence meant, but we ALL do have our opinion. Sats

Sarnie,Think you are out of order mate, everyone to their own and all that you know, i love natural untouched photo's as much as anyone, and i take them also, but SOME people like both, dont see the problem myself, but there you go. proper camera Nikon D80 now D300, 18 TO 200MM VR , proper person funnily enough , things like that are done just for a laugh you know Sats

He he, good man

Just showing off now (or like me in the past, I found that happening using the Internet green 'back' button on posting, rather than waiting for the thread to re-appear with my psoting - just a thought?) Think it was me not waiting long enough

Hi Yes, i did 3 of the same photos, quickley with 3 different skies, to see how much the sky altered the overall look of the car / picture, i'm on a steep learning curve with shop Here they are all together. Cheers. Ian

Hi It is Sunset orange, but has many coats of Collinite wax on, which has deepened the colour , it really is that colour, but looks bronzy on a dull cloudy day, glad you like it. Cheers Ian

Don't know what happened there,

Cheers guy's,thanks for the comments, i think i tend to agree with you, also like this angle Cheers SATS

Hi, think i tend to agree with you, also like this angle Cheers SATS

The background is from a sci fi picture, thought the modern industrial look went well with the rusty car Sats

No, Manchester where abouts in manchester? it's buggin me, i recognise it but can't place where it is. nice pic btw. The foreground, and small roof is at Trafford road bridge, near Pamona docks, the background is photoshoped in.

No, Manchester

Paul, amazing collection SATS

This is more important if you are turbo charged, as the oil fries on the turbo if turned off when hot.

Weird place my calender pic altered slightly

Martin cheers matey, mine arrived today, brilliant , thanks for all the effort put into this. SATS
