Hopefully PF will realise this and send out there sinceres

When the pictures were taken at a motor show where the car was on show for all to see? i dont know? then post them on net how many other pepole have got them off the net. ok if the the pitctures are how u make a living then contact them BUT just sending 1 email and then posting about it on here is not how to go about it! so carry on (RSrussell ) talking about things u know nothing about!!
It does not really matter, if you don't know who the author is, then you are not allowed to use the pictures at all!! If they are posted on the internet does not matter. What PF has done here is clearly very unethical for a magazine IMO, as this car is from Norway and the pics where taken at a Norwegian motorshow you don't have to be a rocketscientist to figure out who has taken the pictures, the car scene in Norway is not that big and you would probably get an answer the same day that you post something in a norwegian internet forum. If you want any info regarding the Norwegian Ford scene, post it on the forum at
www.cosworth.no and you will get the info needed pretty rapidly...
