I did this event a few years ago, it was brilliant, especially the opportunity to take my car around the test track at Mercedes Benz World (next door to Brooklands Museum).

Yeah, your indicators seem to be in the wrong place???? they are more 'out board' than they should be

Mike, have you photo shopped your own front bumper to see if anyone notices??

I think it looks better

I'd never noticed that before, I was obviously going that fast it broke the laws of physics.

DeLorean looks good on a long lens from the front... Still can't work out how your indicators have moved 3 inches outwards though...!

Possibly an interesting way of the photographer watermarking the picture? There does look to be a bit of a blur on the bumper where the right indicator should be positioned on the car.
