very nice... only comment is the left headlight (left side of photo) on the Aston looks a little odd, but other that #5 is my fav, followed very closely by #1

I don't like #1 becuase of the lighting on the car, But all the rest are up to your usual high standard

Bloody nice shots! What PP do you do to get them looking that way?

love the VXR shots (and I normally hate all Vauxhall cars), love the "look", any chance you could post how it's done (specifically 1 and 3)

Thanks for your comments.

Thanks. I think it's because the light was low and from behind, therefore lighting the glass in an odd way.

Lighting doesn't really bother me. Sometimes you have to shoot into the sun get the compostion/background you're after. I think using flash would have looked odd.

I don't really like giving my processing tips away. I feel that it's better to play around with Photoshop, tinker with everything until you figure out what works and what doesn't. If someone tells yuo how to do achieve a certain look, you don't always understand how it works or why they do it.

So, I'll leave you with a hint: Adjustment layers & blending modes!

Still really like the composition and the PP but the VXR road shot takes it for me!
