This photo of my car was sent off as a joke by a family member to a competition (Honda Idol 2012)

It somehow got shortlisted for one of the rounds, it's a pretty small magazine but last time the competition was run 2 years ago there was a crazy amount of votes cast. There is a few prizes if you eventually win but I can't imagine that happening tbh. I'd appreciate your vote though all the same please.

You need a valid email address to vote, you won't be spammed.

When the Idol competition ran in 2010 there were over 186,000 votes cast over the rounds and final.

First day of voting for this round, top 3 spot gets me into the final round!

I'm assuming they mean 186,000 over Honda, Impreza and Nissan magazines.Thanks for the votes folks, much appreciated.

Done. Love the six digit D plate, a good reminder of the happier and good old boom times and drivers were more relaxed about parking:)

Good luck.
