forum_emoticons.html	[quote=taxiguy,22535]:lol: That is quite neat ingo! You can just see the white colored top of our '70 Volkswagen Bus in our driveway on google maps. (Sorry I cannot post a link, but I tried and it doesn't work) Unfortunately, there are too many trees in the way to see any of our other six cars in the driveway. That's one of the bad things about living in Michigan, there's so many trees that obstruct the view of everything :/ Also, you really have an Opel Omega B? :love: That is one of my favorite cars! It was sold here as Cadillac Catera from 1997-2001. But I prefer the Holden Commodore version, and even better the luxurious long wheelbase Holden Caprice :bave: [url]http://i29.tinypic.com/2882mog.jpg[/url][/quote]

This screenshot shows the parking-lot at my workplace. The gray car encircled is the 1990 Mercedes 190 E that I owned until last year. Other cars parking there: early 90s Nissan Primera estate (dark green), Volvo V40 and Opel Astra G (light gray), Opel Corsa B (turquoise).

Any help/advice on how to get it to work?

When you zoomed/moved the view to what you want to show, click the "link" link at the top right of the map. Then it gives you a link that you can copy/paste.

I just discovered (thanks to marioman :wink:

) that you can see my house on google maps "street view" and you can also see all the cars in our driveway, and also a close-up view our white Camry parked out on the street :smile:

Sadly, I can't get the stupid link to work, all it shows is a view of the whole continent, not the zoomed in view of my street :ohwell:

Here's the link btw,

You can also see my city's taxi garage, where there all the yellow and white Caprices and Crown Vics are parked :bave:

Unfortunately I can't provide aworking link to that either :tongue:

taxiguy

I think you have watched one too many action movies, CCF! :tongue:

I would to destroy it by throwing it down a hill or blocking the accelerator and make it go towards a ramp to see it how it rolls over :grin:

!

Oough, forget it. Even if you would throw it in front of my feet, I wouldn't pick it up. :tongue:
