First photo of many to come in my gallery!

Taken in Sheffield yesterday lunchtime, I had to Photoshop out some traffic in the background as the road was busier than I expected. Found some great industrial locations for future photos. Girlfriend was rolling her eyes a bit so I could only get a few pics, then I dragged her round a motorbike dealership to gawp at my next bike (she loves it really)

thats a great picture - bet you didn't park down there for too long

 

[Dead Duck]

Thanks for your comments! The more I look at it, the more it looks like a cheesy 80s Athena poster or something....

Very nice Jon!
Good job on the photoshop mate!

That shine down your side is making me want to get side stripes now! Thanks Jon!

Very nice MINI how many miles you done now?

You should start your gallery and put it in there!

Looks good, I bet it smells new too
I love the smell of a new car

 

[Dead Duck]

Ah it's not a brand new car - it's new to me though, a Jan '03. Does smell new though, previous owner put 15K on it and I've put another 1.5 on it in the past month and a bit.

Shine courtesy of Meguiars Gold Class polish and detailing clay.

I've thought about putting sideys on mine too Laura, thought about a thick dark gold one flanked with a thinner one either side - 70's style! There's another Photoshop task ahead....

Cracking picture there even though I was in sheffield in my student days not that long ago I can't say I was ever had the pleasure of going down that road. I hope my car looks that good when it arrives.
On the subject of Athena there's a place down abbeydale road called Athena.
I can't remember what it specializes in.

Don't know the name of the road, but it's heading out of town towards Meadowhell. It's got gantrys and pipes crossing overhead - I think you see it briefly in The Full Monty
