I'm back it's been a while but I hope this is sufficient,

Next Challenge: Your 8v next to the same make and model (bonus points on offer for the same colour) as your first car, (sorry all you old timers, not sure how many Ford, Model T's are still about)

Luckily i'm young enough to still have my first car in the family as my parents have it now as a shopping car...It still gets parked in large, end spaces, far, far from the entrance! The mighty Aztec Gold, 1.3CDTI Vauxhall Corsa Energy which the whole family at somepoint have driven and owned since we had it brand new in 2004!

Even better.... The actual car, bonus points on top of your bonus points,

On an unrelated issue any moderators message me about my username and avatar? Or are you lot seeing it correctly, mine isn't showing my user name as 'BenDanielGrant' and the avatar is missing.

OK, your car next to a phone box...more points if it's the old red one :)
 
Phone boxes in general or the old red ones? :)

Well here in Sweden we have neither so would be impressed regardless!

Idiot ******** were always smashing the boxes so probably the first country in the world to abandon them... :disappointed::rage:

Does an oil rig count as a boat?

Or what about the background being somewhere that boats are built?

Nice picture, but all these comments detract from the current challenge....

Holy Thread Resurrection Batman!

Lockdown is hopefully going to start easing soon, so an excuse to restart the game initiated by @S32B to hopefully brighten things up with some fun. Also tagging @pburv

We will have a whole new set of 8V owners now so hoping this will gain traction (pun intended).

Rules (adapted from @S32B’s original post):
  • A challenge is set to post a picture of your car next to/near/on/by/infront of etc. a certain object/building/sign/person/place/backdrop/anything! As long as it's available to all and not just linked to your area/country (for instance you can't say post a pic of your car next to the Eiffel Tower, but you could say next to a tower. Nor could you say next to the River Thames, but you could say next to a river...you get the idea!).
  • No composite photos - must be real.
  • It must be an 8V currently or previously owned by someone in your household - no random pics of someone else’s car.
  • Whomever posts a relevant pic first, then sets the next challenge.
  • If someone beats you to it, don’t post your photo but save it for next time as challenges can be repeated.
  • If no-one completes the challenge in a week, the person who won the last round (and set the challenge) chooses a new challenge - if they don’t, someone else can (to keep the thread alive).
  • Park your car legally.
This is NOT an excuse to break lockdown. If you can’t go out, feel free to dig through your pics of your 8V to see if any meet the challenge.

Example: Post a photo of your car at the tip / recycling centre.
Car   HWRC

(photo taken before COVID)

Challenge: Photo of your car somewhere with a landscape / seascape view.

A bit thin on the view but to get the thread going - ok. @Leevr - post a new challenge.

Did you ever get all the sand out of it?
