I'll take a set if there are any left please?

If you do any more, any chance you can include mine

if you post it here as a COMPLETED CARD (details earlier in this thread) I can add it in 3 clicks of a mouse, about 1.75 seconds, to my AS Bottom Trumps folder and with  an additional 2 clicks of the mouse or about 1.20 seconds send the folder of 90 cards to one of many printers. Then if you ping me an Postal Address they'll be in the post to you.  Would you like fries with that?

What font and size are we using?

I'm trying to put it together in MS Paint, it's not going well

[castros_bro]

Template on page 3

font:- Century Gothic

 

Carlo may help as it's his baby.

People who display at car shows should print out A3 size ones for a laugh.

 

Is Microsoft Paint the best thing to add the text/pic?

[castros_bro]

I think more of the spirit of Autoshite is open the template on your monitor at work, print a car pic and cut to size stick to monitor , fill in template on monitor with a black felt tip pen, photo it all with your phone and upload here, obviously if you are an HGV driver it maybe* advisable to park up before hand.  I can do A3 but only on 80gsm stock and most photos don't have the quality for that size.

[carlo]

I'll do these latest ones tonight when I get back if required.

[Sealtainn]

Yes please as I am making a complete Horlicks of it.

When I put the picture in, it looks skewed and pixelated.

I think I'll print a massive copy of mine and laminate it then leave it on the dashboard when I go to Ford Fair next year

[lisbon_road]

This any good?  I'd really appreciate some if it is possible, realise I have left it late but only just read this thread 

[lisbon_road]

and this - more than happy if the AS rating is changed but there are so many of these......

 

[carlo]

Latest batch

 

 

 

 

[Skizzer]

Grand! I was going to do mine later but you've beaten me to it - thanks

[castros_bro]

Oh No Thread highjack

 

They have now all printed with the extra cards taking the place of some less worthy ones and anyone who has sent me an address has now a set posted  to them and there's two sets remaining for latecommers.  Next week I'll be mainly doing a different size card  and   there is still some old cardstock left so rather then bin, it as I'm instructed to, if anyone wants 15cm x 10cm ( 6 inch by 4 inch in Essex) postcards of any choddy photo they themselves have taken (copyright thingy) stick a QUALITY photo on here with how many copies you want and PM me a corresponding address, there's probably enough for 60+ cards. Surprised none of the AS Art Department are lurking.  No cost but any donations to AS.   The back of the cards will be this

 

 

[lisbon_road]

My Autoshite top trumps cards arrived a while back and are superb.  Really pleased many thanks!

I refuse to even copy and paste that on my computer.

Oh dear

A lot can change in five years.  Xsara Picassos are running out, unbelievably. 

Image moved to this thread.

[AnnoyingPentium]

Do you think you could make one of these for the Fabia? If there isn't one already and if it isn't too much bother, of course? I don't have the motivation to rake through the thread lol.

Year Introduced - 1999

Max Speed - 99mph (so close yet still so far)

Max Power - 64bhp

Cubic Capacity - 1198cc

Production - a hell of a lot?

[carlo]

Oh yes

VW Scirocco GT

Year Introduced - 1982

Max Speed - 101mph 

Max Power - 75bhp

Cubic Capacity - 1595cc

Production - 504,153 

[carlo]

The fact it only produces 75bhp earns it an extra 1 point.

[dozeydustman]

@carloI've just downloaded the Picasso one you've just put up; I shall download the new creations, and the scans of the older one 95QP is sending me (unless you still have access to the old files), and the plan is to do a print run which I can get done at the Uni where my wife works. Probably only £3-4 a set.

[carlo]

Still got over 50 of the old ones on my pc as jpegs, not sure if that's the full set.

[AnnoyingPentium]

Thanks @carlo for making one. I appreciate it.

I was printing sets of 10 pages of 9 cards but different sets had slightly different selections so 90+ cards.
