Where does the time go? Autostadt.ie is FIVE years old!!!


To celebrate, we have a bit of interactive action for all you Autostadt.ie members!

Got a car you love?
Get out and about in it all the time or even now and again?
Got a camera or camera phone handy?

GREAT! We have a challenge for you and a chance to win a great prize to boot!!

We want you to get out and about in your car, accept a simple challenge each month and post your photos here for all to see!
Each month for the next five months we will issue you with a specific challenge. All you have to do is get your car into the situation suggested in each challenge and take a snap! You don't have to have a professional camera or be a professional photographer, all you have to do is take a snap and post it here. Obviously, if you have the means and the skills, be as artful as you like but it's open to EVERYONE so a simple snap will suffice.

So, what's this month's challenge?


Here it is:

"The landmark challenge".

Say what?

Get your car in front of a well-known landmark in your area and take a photo! Simples!! Whether it be a local castle, tourist attraction, monument, famous location, whatever. Find some kind of landmark that is recognisable and take a photo! For example:

Best combination of car and location wins! We'll choose the three best entries and post it here.

What can you win? Well, we have an exclusive Autostadt.ie branded polo shirt AND an Autostadt.ie merchandise pack up for grabs this month with another merchandise pack for the two best runners up.
That's just for this month, who knows what we'll rustle up for next month's challenge!!

So thats it! Take the challenge, join in the fun, share your photos with the Autostadt.ie community!!

Happy snapping!










*Disclaimer: don't do anything dangerous!! Don't cause a nuisance or hold up traffic trying to take your photo. Choose your location, park up and take a nice pic without getting into any bother!!
