No, it's totally legal. Cheeky..! but legal. It's his picture, he can do as he pleases with it (legally). Would be different if the photo was offensive, or if he was trespassing whilst taking it, or if (in some cases) it constituted a significant invasion of privacy, but just a car at a show, even with the plates in the picture - nothing you can do except moan at him.
You can take your own photo though and save yourself £1.99 :)

Can't think who buys this crap, but looking at his previous sales, he actually gets sales of photos of random stuff.... odd.

I know the owner of the car in this photo shoot

It was a proper set up, organized by the guys with the helmets, but ever since then people have been selling knock-offs on-line, like this one.

Normally they have the wit to crop out the photographers website mind you, but not this arse.



The D owner isn't bothered any more, out of resignation that it can't be stopped, but the photographer takes a more dim view as it's his creativity that they are profiting off.
