My Starlight Silver CDTi Connie SE
 
Took the car down to Stevenston beach today (bit strange for the 1st of Feb but it was work related).

Thought I would take some shots of the car as was a wild(ish) setting.

Only real downside was it was a howling wind and the car was filthy from the roads at the moment.:o

Anyway, I think the photos turned out not too bad considering it was on my phone (Samsung Tocco).:}

Thanks Phil. Think I'll take it down there again in the summer when it's a bit brighter. Atmospheric shots today though.:cool:

That was just my wee Samsung mobile but I was quite pleased with the results.

It was the sky that made me take the pictures as the sun was setting. Thought it might look okay. Yours would of course have looked better. The setting sun bouncing off a polished Grovey would have looked stunning:drool4::drool4:

Thanks Ronnie but it is February and we will have some sunshine in the summer!! (just so long as I don't miss the day!:D)

Cheers for all your comments guys.

Car looks good Derek, and a nice backdrop as well...very picturesque.

Those are great photos! Just love the way you managed to get the reflection of the setting Sun.
I have to agree with what has already been mentioned that those wheels look really good, what size are they? And what are they called?
Regards:)

Hi Marc,

Thanks for that mate.

Wheels are 17" and come from a Hawkeye Subaru Impreza. I actually think they suit the 75 better than the Impreza.

See what I mean?
