A Drive In The Country



  BMW M135i


Was bored so I went for a drive in the country and thought id take the digicam with me to get a few artsy pics of the car. Nowt spectacular but I thought id share them with you lot anyway. And yep, its in need of a serious cleaning session but bad weather has stopped me for a week.

Yeh, its difficult not to (for me at least), need to get the vinyl cleaner on it when it gets washed.

Probably because I only had them fitted a week ago, the previous ones had done 20000 miles and were getting rather more like slicks so I thought it was time to sort it out and boy what a difference it makes.

was it foggy? nice n standard, as badinvicible said " i wish my tyres had that much tread left"
 


great pics... heres a tip for future photo shoots tho...

crouch down to the same level as the car... will improve them all 100%.

Nice pics fella.

You picked some good backdrops for your pics, but the foreground is spoiling the pics a little. The side profile shots would have been better with the gate etc in the background as opposed to the hedge on the other side of the road. As fubar rightly says, try crouching or even climbing up something to make the composition a little more interesting and exclude the bits you dont want to see (like the bit of rubbish on the floor!!)

Cant really fault the ZV3s so far, much better than the continentals it came with, though they were pretty much nackered when I got it so had those fitted last week. Theyre a lot quieter, hardly any road noise especially on new tarmac, they feel much more grippier in the corners so get pretty much top marks from me. Though with this being me first car an all ive not got that much tyres experience to know how they compare overall.

Ive got some clear repeaters and silvervisions ready to go on and ive had them for about 2 weeks but just hadnt had the time to get round to installing them. As for anything else, im in two minds whether to get a catback and a panel filter for it, id like to but need to see what difference it will make to my insurance to see if ill bother.

Hmmm a few too many half-car/half-scenery shots..not sure which I was meant to be looking at! Good effort though.

Id like to have a go at a photo sesh with mine.
