Hello, My name is Adam C and I am 24 years old but Vauxford is my preferred username. I am an avid car spotter and car enthusiast! I joined Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons on 20th December 2016.

My hobby is photographing high quality photos of vehicles seen on the road or at shows. (My favourites are everyday cars, especially between late 70s, 80s and late 90s) as well the newest models and facelifts. I also cover a bit of architecture as well (Chapels, Landmarks etc).

My Quality Images
