This week's theme as brought to you by GPR:
Time to put in some track time in a car fit for fun, around an icon of a circuit that is Silverstone. Two British beauties and group of talented photomoders, I expect great things. And with the variable time and weather there's lots of variety to be had.

UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: Only this car should be present, multi car shots allowed though.
Please, ensure you read and understand all requirements for this competition. Failure to follow
