OK This goes for ALL threads.
This is a competition so keep the banter at a minimum. We want to see a pic + a description / reason behind the pic, others are free to comment within the bounds of sense.

OK a little blurred but - beat this :D

It's a "penny racer" & I think it's supposed to be an Izusu Trooper, but it's a perfect effigy of a Rickman Ranger - :geek: it cant be a Suzuki SJ because it has square wheel arches :geek: It even has green tinted glass the same!

A bit of lateral thinking being applied here, but this is one of the views I get to enjoy everytime I take the car out, and probably the main reason why I love chrome :roll:

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm very please with the way it came out in the end. Most difficult bit for me was taking the photo without getting in the shot myself, if you look very closely you can just see me hiding a long way in the distance over the rear wheel arch. I had to use my 400mm zoom at it's maximum so I didn't appear in the shot :oops:

Long lens :!: look closely in the gap between the top of the rear wheel arch and the underside of the wing mirror. You can just see my hands holding the camera
