To improve them ... they still dont look amazing i dont think but i suppose it is my phone cause my digi cam is playing up ...   
 
  
  
  
 
there all from relativly same angle's so is it more down to positioning and lighting .. ?

crop the first one, that garage door thing looks nasty and messes with your eyes and takes up a bigger part of the pic than the subject.

I like them and I wouldn't even crop, there's a nice perspective from those lines. 
 
Light is all over the place in the third one which has caused the camera some problems. 
 
Worth noting though - front corner wheel turned is a nice safety shot, but you need more variety from a whole set - I hope this isn't all you came home with!

Yeah saw them just now. 
 
Going from the thread in GC -  
 
1 - same as in here - I like. 
2 - shadows spoil it 
3 - I like but too tight to the car and light is bad, cam is having real problems, door handle is blown, random dark bar presumably a lamp post shadowing as well. 
4 - I like but move the bit of wood on the floor 
5 - I like but you need a tad more floor and the car central from left to right. 
6 - light probs again 
7 - too tight to the car 
8 - I like 
9/10 I like but light a problem again. 
 
What camera is that?  It has big problems with bright light.  You either need to manually underexpose and make your pics darker - and you'll lose your wheels - or photograph not in direct sunlight. 
 
Perhaps try later in the day or on a more overcast day?  Not sure.  I'm guessing, you need to see what works with that cam.

That explains the exposure and composition problems. 
 
The fact I've confused them for a proper camera probably says a lot about how good the phone is at taking pics!
