Further explanation of the theme, as described by Giulietta73:

"A tacky little nod to the hit 1980s Tom Selleck crime busting TV show.
As we do not have a red Ferrari 308 GTS, we'll have to make do with her slightly better looking
sister the 512BB' 76.
Take this retro dream machine for spin along the tight streets of Cote D'Azur - though I feel
that the real photographic challenge will be the track rather than the car."


CAR: Ferrari 512BB '76 (doesn't have to be red!).
LOCATION: Côte D'Azur.
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: None.

See Ant's link below to see what I'm talking about.
Some of us will reminisce, some of us will cringe, some of us will laugh out loud and some will just shake their head and walk slowly away!:indiff:

PS - turn your speakers up high!:scared:

Thanks for that Ant:)👍

Glad you like the theme Sean, had the car, had the location but didn't know how to present it as a theme. A Playboy millionaires theme seemed a bit clichéd. Then it hit me - Magnum P.I.!!

Might have to do Hardcastle & MacCormick next:dunce::nervous: (not really! Though it did have a rather nice Maccie M6GT-based Coyote X!!)

Lovely shots so far:tup:
 
Haha! I really am a fan of them '80s flicks and TV series and 80s music !.

The intro did give me some of the inspiration I needed. I hope GT6 gives us more freedom with the camera. Some high shots, some through trees would have added even more of that Magnum P.I panache, know what I mean!

Oh and don't you forget Miami Vice. Then really I should save it for when I win a competition, whenever that happens :lol:
 
Final Entry


I suppose I'll use this shot I took yesterday. I was planning to take a second go, but I didn't return home in time. Thanks for the extension Eric!
