I spend a few hours most evenings, probably about 20-25 hours in total.  My 
target for this project was to get the best possible looking model in a 
limited time.  So it would look quite bad from an opposite angle (eg there 
is no dashboard, no rear lights, no detail on the back etc).  It is by no 
means a complete model.

Yes, I was planning to do the stock wheels/tyres, but just no time. 
Actually I was quite looking forward to doing the tyres after reading a few 
tutorials.  Maybe at a later date I will make some updates.

Yes, I just need to play about with the lights to make them look more 
realistic, I really didn't optimise it much because I wanted to get it 
rendered by the end of Sunday.

Looking at it I think the focal blur might also be adding to the "model car" 
vision.  Maybe I can just scrap the FB altogether or reduce the aperture.
