looks alright.

if you want full car pics, stick your camera on a tripod, set shutter speed really low and click. more light gets into the lens meaning it shows better. but makes sure it doesnt move cause itl blur like hell.

Nice shot mate, if only it had the VW logo or something lit up instead of currys and you'd have yourself a stunner.
