Well considering this has slowed down recently. Take my word for this, the following photo is from Batemans Bay, just round the corner from the marina.
 Next challenge - Your car and you (can be taken anywhere). PS. Lets try and keep this rolling

Took my car out the back onto the gravel road to aim my spot lights (it's stopped on a road).
Here's the photo.  Next Challenge - Your car having a wash/ bath, needs to have soap suds/ foam on the car.

Here's a shot from the car cam of the Rio going over the Mulwala bridge NSW-->VIC. For those who haven't been on this bridge, it's worth going there just to drive on, it has a weird history and is very narrow. The two states were building it from their respective sides and didn't communicate properly with each other, and ended up meeting at the wrong height, so it goes up, then down to nearly water level, then up again and round a corner on the way to Mulwala. Have passed everything on it from semis, cars over the middle line, to a campervan and boat like in this first pic. Second pic is coming from VIC direction. Bottom pic is also on the wider section of the road, and bear in mind it's a wide angle lens, and makes the road look a lot wider than it is!

  all because the distributor cap retaining clip had no tension and it dropped off causing the rotor button to smack into the cap knocking a point off the cap and stuffing the button. (had to tow it from Canberra :( ) Next Challange: best "arty" photo of your car
