Hi mate, I will be going to Singapore for 4 days and will be picturing a lot of cars there. have you been there? If yes, tell me which cars do you want me to picture and I'll store it on OneNote and will make a list of the cars.

Any further pics, let me know mate --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 06:41, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't no, the furthest I ever went from the UK was the Isle of Wight, not exactly sure what cars would be there other then the few odd chinese and rebadged. --Vauxford (talk) 14:25, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed you have a list of car users, most notably former Wikipedia user OSX. I worked with him in ensuring the images of Aussie vehicles were on Wikipedia. Since he has departed I have taken his role as the ONLY Australian and Singaporean car photographer on Wikipedia. Would you please consider adding me to your profile considering I have made heavy contributions with my photos :)

--EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 14:23, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah sure. --Vauxford (talk) 14:52, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers mate, I do a lot of photography of vehicles in my home state of WA. I suffer a car disease, making me love cars too much :) --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 15:10, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm always out documenting what I can find on the UK roads. It been less than a year and I already surpass over a 1000+ photos. --Vauxford (talk) 15:12, 9 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Vauxford, I've reverted the picture on the Peel P50 page back to the previous one of the car in the Lane Museum. Yours is a much better picture, but despite its fake licence plate, the car in the photo at the NEC is actually a brand new (2017) replica P50 by p50cars.com. It is very difficult to spot the differences unless you start poking about underneath. There was a real P50 on show at the show on the National Microcar Rally stand (reg no CHN 410B) Hopefully you might have got a photo of that one as well? Mighty Antar (talk) 02:16, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, so they basically put the license plate of a genuine one onto the newer one, because when I looked up the plate and it was genuine. I just notices the modern looking vents on the bottom. I can see how it very hard to tell apart sadly I don't have no other photos of a Peel P50, but thank you for letting me know. I found that very sneaky of them to do that, kinda disappointed with the stall for doing that. --Vauxford (talk) 02:26, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think "sneaky" is being very polite about what they were doing! Don't let it put you off continuing to do brilliant work to improve Wikipedia - have a great Christmas. Mighty Antar (talk) 13:02, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You too! --Vauxford (talk) 13:25, 18 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Vauxford, Thanks for sharing your images of cars pictured in England.

• File:2017 Honda CR-V EX i-VTEC Automatic 2.0.jpg is actually a 4th gen CR-V not a 5th Gen as outlined by a different shape style. I have amended your error and because you think it was a 5th gen, it isn't as the 5th gen is a more boxier style shape, whereas this is a rounded off shape. Mind you, a relative owns one so I know what they look like :) --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 02:03, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

EurovisionNim Oh that was my mistake sorry. I didn't look at them properly. Thank you for fixing it up. --Vauxford (talk) 13:11, 11 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Vauxford, Thanks for taking the many required car photos for use on Wikipedia. I was wondering, because I never get the chance to go to car dealerships, yet alone my friends who came sorta rushed me from taking pictures of vehicle interiors. Is it possible for you to look for all the new vehicle interiors when you go to car dealerships please. If you can get some vehicle interior shots, that'd be great --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 09:04, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: I have taken some shots of the vehicle interiors, especially the new vehicles. One reason why I didn't do all of them is they are already high quality images of them in the Commons. Taking pictures can be difficult due to the closed space which tend to be very dark which can make my camera unable to photograph, depending on the showroom lighting but I will try and get more interior shots when I'm out and about again. --Vauxford (talk) 12:27, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That happened to me at the car show, so I had to resort to my mobile phone. Can't your mobile phone do the interior shots, I mean its quite better --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 12:28, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, I often use my Samsung as a last resort when it comes to lighting, it does make the image have a lighter tint though. You can tell the difference some of the pictures I took with it. --Vauxford (talk) 12:30, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The lighting doesn't have to be perfect, however needs to be sufficient. As said, don't just shove images that you have immediately uploaded to Wikimedia for Wikipedia articles. After uploading the interior images, send me the image and I'll critique it. cheers --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 12:32, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: Well in the meantime you could take a look at my existing ones I took. --Vauxford (talk) 12:33, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, did and will use them for Wikipedia. --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 12:34, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First of all: Thank you very much for contributing so many high quality pictures. Great work!

There is a slight issue with one of your indeed better quality pictures for the V70 XC / XC70 section of the Volvo V70 article. The photographed car has been customized which makes it not an ideal candidate to show the XC looks. The big issue is with the rear picture (2004 Volvo XC70 D5 SE AWD Geartronic 2.4 Rear.jpg). The rear bumper and rear wheel arch extension(s) have been painted and a spoiler has been installed. Admittedly the spoiler is an original item, or at least a replica of the OE one. Bumper and wheel arch extension(s) were always unpainted, textured black...ish plastic and from the factory a rear spoiler was not an option for the XC70.

The smaller issue is with the front picture (2004 Volvo XC70 D5 SE AWD Geartronic 2.4 Front.jpg). Mostly because the now painted bumper and wheel arch extensions are visible.

Do you mind if this is reverted to the old pictures? I agree they are of worse quality.

@2A04:4540:900:4200:F050:2D85:A247:DFDE: Hmm I see what you mean. To be honest I didn't notice it until now. I have reverted the edit since you made a valid point. --Vauxford (talk) 16:41, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Not surprising that you did not notice, it is a rather subtle detail. If you find another XC without modifications feel free to use pictures of that. 2A04:4540:900:4200:F050:2D85:A247:DFDE (talk) 20:14, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vauxford, could you do me a favour and picture the new Ford Mustang convertible. The reason being is that at the motor show I attempted to picture the car but it came out extremely blurry. Cheers --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 07:20, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: The 2018 Ford Mustang itself isn't going to be in this country for a while (Like around September or so). Unless you mean the current Mustang Convertible than I will try and keep a look out. --Vauxford (talk) 12:03, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The current 2015-2017 Ford Mustang please --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 12:23, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. --Vauxford (talk) 12:25, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Vauxford, Is it possible for you to take new high quality images of the sedan and wagon version of the new Mercedes-Benz W213/S213 please. We are looking for some extremely high quality image. Please provide both front and rear shots. Thanks, --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 10:57, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: I will put it on my to-do list. I haven't been to my local Mercedes garage anyway. I will also keep a look out for any on the road. --Vauxford (talk) 11:01, 5 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Vauxford, Thanks for uploading some of your latest images. I notice that you replaced a very high quality image of a white BMW X1 on Inokom. I personally believe that my image is higher quality because it is against a nice background, compared to yours because it has cars that are distracting the image.

File:2018 BMW X1 xDrive18D Sport 2.0.jpg

File:2016 BMW X1 (F84) xDrive25i wagon (2017-07-15) 01.jpg

Could you explain to me why you chose to replace a good quality image of the white BMW with your blue car which has a lot of reflections and distractions.

Cheers, --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 12:40, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: Hi Nim, now looking at it, although yours is good and have small amount of distraction but you have a tendency of cropping pictures much too tight. It also slightly tilted while the one I use gives a nice overall example of what the latest model looks. The reflection you mention is just because it was brand new. It wasn't that sunny when I took it. Sometimes distraction can't be avoided but since perspective is good as well as the quality that why I replaced it. ...if that make sense?

P.S: My bad over the clumsy edit on J-Segment. Copypaste errors tend to happen when you use it alot and end up forgetting which image you have on your clipboard. --Vauxford (talk) 17:53, 12 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Vauxford, Could you please get an image of the Renault Tailsman sedan? We have really bad quality images of the sedan models and I think if you get both the front and rear, that'd be great --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 11:29, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: Hi Nim, unfortunately the Tailsman isn't sold in the UK (or any right-hand drive market) unless by sheer chance I come across a foreign reg example.

They aren't selling the current gen Espace in this country as well. Mostly because nowadays, people are preferring 7-seats SUVs and crossovers and we don't really buy large French cars anymore. --Vauxford (talk) 12:45, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have friends/family who live where the Renault Tailsman is sold? If yes, can you get a photo off them please. Make sure to get a 3/4 full shot of the car and include both front and rear --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 12:47, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: I don't have friends or family living in a European country as they all live in the UK. Also they aren't the biggest enthusiast when it comes to cars. Sorry about that. --Vauxford (talk) 13:05, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Vauxford, Thanks for your recent contributions. Having struggled finding an A4 with my DSLR, could you do the honours and please look for an Audi A4 (B9). Really appreciate it.

Keep up the amazing work --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 09:25, 12 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @EurovisionNim:, I recently came back from holiday so I have quite a lot of photos to deal and edit. (160+ photos) As well as the ones I took yesterday at my local classic car show but I will be heading to Stratford-upon-Avon where a Audi dealership is located so I will try and keep a look out. --Vauxford (talk) 19:34, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Kewl mate, if you can get a street shot, that'd be better. Dealerships seem to be crowded --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 03:16, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: Well it that or having to wait months until they start appearing on the road. I can't really do much with things in the background. Personally, a few cars in a background is fine as long they doesn't protrude in front of the subject. --Vauxford (talk) 12:04, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks mate for File:2018 Audi A4 Sport TDi Quattro S-A 2.0.jpg – very good shot. I was looking for these :)) --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 03:49, 18 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. --Vauxford (talk) 11:19, 18 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading the HiLux image – I have seen plenty of them, but they appear to be commerically modded – thankyou for providing a great shot !! –-EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 02:50, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: Thank you. I see your improving as well. A lot more clearer and better lighting on your recent ones. --Vauxford (talk) 03:12, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vauxford, I usually tell people to get out of the way – Yeah cheers, I especially like my blue Civic sedan image, its the best one out of all my images --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 03:13, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Vauxford, Could you do me a favour and please picture the following cars.

• Mazda MX-5 (only the ND model)
• Alfa Romeo Stelvio (I noticed you only pictured the front, would it be possible to get a new shot showing both the front and rear)
• Aston Martin Rapide (pre-facelift only, as I have got a high quality shot of the facelift)
• MG ZS SUV (I took a pic back in Freo, but it turned out as bad quality, so please can you do that)

I enjoy your recent pics, they are very good. Also, one thing, if you don't have any cars that are not sold in the UK, but are sold in Australia, can you post me a list of the vehicles that you want me to picture. I specialise around the Fremantle area due to university. People who park their cars along the High Street are really nice, and allow me to picture their cars without any hassles. Now I do the car photography alone as I have familiarised myself with Freo and I cover greater lengths. People know I use these photos for Wikipedia, so they are aware of what I do with them.

Thankyou for your time and I hope you have a lovely day/night (can't tell which is which [its 7.40pm in Perth]). Cheers, --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 11:39, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@EurovisionNim: I will try to. The pictures you listed are still uncommon on the road, Mazda MX-5 is what I likely able to photographed. --Vauxford (talk) 15:53, 8 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vauxford, I was out in Fremantle, not long ago and I found a really good picture of a Toyota HiLux. I also noticed you took a similar picture of the HiLux of exactly same colour.

I was wondering which of the two is of higher quality. I believe mine is better because it is at a better 3/4 angle and the brightness of the vehicle is quite right, compared to yours which appears to be a little darker.

If you were the best person to decide, which is better. Please explain your choice, because both are of similar quality albeit of some extremely minor errors. --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 11:47, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

EurovisionNim, Really, the angle for this case is just depend of preference. It still shows all the characteristic of the vehicle but mine is slightly darker because it was damp on that day. Both of them are decent images. One can be used for the Infobox and the other for the Generation infobox. It was a strange coincidence we both photograph the same spec and colour within days apart. Vauxford (talk) 13:17, 12 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Vauxford, Knowing you have the best quality image analysis, could you please assist me in analysing which is the better example as per Davey2010's revert.

I find that my new uploads File:2018 Skoda Fabia (NJ MY18.5) 81TSI hatchback (2018-10-01) 01.jpg and File:2018 Skoda Fabia (NJ MY18.5) 81TSI hatchback (2018-10-01) 02.jpg are higher quality due to the following below:

• File:DerNeueFabia.JPG has more distracting backgrounds of vehicles in comparison to File:2018 Skoda Fabia (NJ MY18.5) 81TSI hatchback (2018-10-01) 01.jpg which has no cars surrounding the shot. In addition, I believe that by Davey2010 reverting the rear view, he is showing the other hatchback picture (File:Skoda Fabia Style (III) – Heckansicht, 2. Mai 2015, Düsseldorf.jpg at a different angle compared to my rear view shot.

Could you please respond to this message with your judgement. Also please bring it to the talk page with your honest opinion. By another user stating his personal opinion I believe he is trying to violate WP:OWN/

Thanks, Nim --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 13:01, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed you reverted this edit I personally felt my grey Baleno was better quality and was cleaner and had a better background

However looking at both of these images I saw your Red Baleno (

has chromatic abrassions and also is very grainy, compared to my Baleno

By looking at both you can see that the Australian Baleno has no leaves on the car and also isn't overly sharpened unlike the red Baleno.

Could you please give me your best judgement and tell me why you think the red Baleno is far superior to my grey Baleno please. Just wondering as your edit summary said "previous was fine" which I don't completely understand. Please can you explain to me why you think that your red Baleno is much better than my grey one. Thanks --EurovisionNim (talk to me)(see my edits) 13:53, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
