Haven't posted any pics for a while now. I actually think this is a very handsome car - the 5.0 V10 engine is a winner too, even if it is a diesel.

Exposure was hard work, dark car, dark windows, bright day.

Most of these are straight from the camera with only raw tweaks, a couple have gradients applied, rather obviously.

The last two are very good, but I'm not sure the countryside is the place to photograph this car.

I think I'd have tried to go for a more seedy/industrial look.

It's GI_Jnr's car by the way, forgot to mention. 20" Audi A8 style wheels finish it off nicely, the standard 18's are just a little small for the coachwork.

Funnily enough, these were taken in the same location as I previously shot Tuan's Lambo, I didn't want to repeat the location as I was worried some eagle eyed PH'ers would catch me out!

I was going to say! I recognised that numberplate instantly. Is that his main steed nowadays?
