Looks like it rolled off the showroom yesterday!
That scene looks like a southern California surfing movie.....

A few years back I had a T shirt made with this PV brochure front page. I see a small similarity here.....
Slapped wrist the artist for the over rider spacing. The USA version with the towel rail bar is also bad and the bar shape is nothing like how it should be.

arcturus; Indeed...very sharp! It just goes to show: True Beauty always stands the test of time! As gv suggests, maybe you should take some beauty shots with a long-board on top and palms and Lisbon surf in the background! [Please consider installing a Brake Light Switch Upgrade to help keep that humpback straight!]

Derek; I had to look three times to even see the "towel rail" (very funny term I hadn't heard before!!) bar...it blends in so well with the grill surround. Other, amusing terms I have heard: Over-rider, City-bar, Braille Parking bar, Pull-up/ Chin-up bar (I invite others to post terms they have heard!).

...that over-rider spacing bothers me too... before propagating it with T-shirts, I would have definitely spent some quality time in Photoshop making it right...(in my neurosis)...

Cheers from Connecticut...no surfing here at the moment!

Cool

No "towel rail" on that one but you can see a bit of thickening between the tops of the over riders. I have the USA version too. I will scan that one and post along with a brochure photo showing what the proper rail should be like. Tomorrow.......
