2008 Astra XR
Default New Astra pictures.

Was bored this morning so went and took some pictures of the Astra.















Nothing special but I thought they turned out okay.

More of my pictures can be found at Flickr here http://www.flickr.com/photos/londonz24/

I know, first and last black car I buy. I have been unable to get any free time to detail the car. May have to bite the bullet and pay a shop to do it for me.

From that angle, it doesn't matter what color the car is. Actually, from any angle. I have black, red and silver, they all show swirl marks.

Anyhoo... sweet pics, but you need some "VHT Niteshades" on those side repeater lights. A couple coats and they fade nicely into the background.

Now:
1999 SC2 (bright red) - 111,039 miles
2008 ASTRA 3-Door XR (black sapphire) - 6,136 miles
Then:
1993 SL2 (blue green) - 100,406 miles
2005 VUE (black onyx) - 25,705 miles

Default Re: New Astra pictures.

Wow that interior shot should is sales brochure worthy. For the exterior shots are you bracketing or just spot metering off the black car? I haven't had much success taking pictures of my black car, but I'm kind of a photography noob.

And I feel your pain when it comes to the swirl marks. My car has a few bad ones too.
