Difficult to get the exposure right there as you have an inherently dark photo - dark car, shadow under the tree - but a large area of light - the sky. The top of the side of the car and the sky are one big area of white with no definition or colour. You also suffer chromatic aberration (bluey shadow effects) around the leaves because the contrast between the leaves and sky is so large. In that sort of situation you should underexpose slightly and adjust the brightness later.
That said, its framed very well.

again 1 taken by trotty which i realy like
icy has also taken a couple which i really like. the best one of my golf has to be this 1
taken by LiVe LeE (rich). i just think the background and sky set it all off nicely.
on another note about trottys photo skills, was really impressed by the photos he took of nismos rx7 on that car park by the cliffs.

Like this one, always makes me think it's more like looking down the side of some large structure than an engine...

Not the best pic, but seems appropriate:
I took it from the passenger seat of my mates '95 Camaro in Saudi.

Phil, it was unreal, absolutely fantastic! the gift experience cost 170, which i got my my bday, driving round silverstone is one thing lol.
they let ppl have two runs, of about 6 laps of each, with space in between (2 people share a car) then after your two sessions the instructor took me out and oh my god i drove slowly compared to him, couldnt stop laughing, was mazin!!!!
