    indeed a very rare car. As finding an up and running TR7 to start with, cannot be easy!

    Steve,

    You've got positive exposure compensation set on your camera, and it's making all your pictures come out over exposed. It's currently set at +1.7; it should be set at zero. Read your user manual - you're looking for 'exposure compensation' or 'EV'.

    Jason,

    The trouble is, I can see that you've obviously shot these pictures from a very low angle which compressed the length of the car (due to the focal-length and depth of field ratio only being twice the square of the inverse proportion of the mass times velocity of the redshift doplar effect minus the smudging of the trees in the background by parallax error and chromatic distortion error adjustment doubtless exacerbated by the digital exposure compensation) which makes it look somehow shorter and rounder, giving the false impression that it has a bag of nails gutless sub-two litre engine, which clearly can't be true. Did it once belong to Nick Mason I wonder?

    Can you post the original un-photoshoped pictures?

    Oh never mind....
    ...we've played this game before.
