190 Of the Month rules:

1) Cars to be voted for must belong to a member of this forum.

2) For the first 2 weeks of the month you can nominate a members car, or submit your own, and post a picture in the "Next Month's submissions" thread.

3) For the last two weeks of the month, the "Next Month" thread will be locked and a new Poll will be started, listing the cars that have been submitted and nominated. The car voted 190 of the Month will then be shown for the next Month on the front page as 190 of the month. :D

4) If you make it as car of the month you are not allowed to be nominated or submitted for the following month.

5) You can only be 190 of the Month once a year, to give everyone a chance, but the winning cars of that year will be put into a poll for 190 of the year!

6) It does not have to be a perfect background or scenic shot but does have to be of good quality. Presentation is everything ;)

7) Once a poll has been closed, all votes will be checked for foul play, multi voting by one member, etc, before announcing the final winner of that month. If a member has been found to have committed foul play resulting in votes for a/their car being upped, then that member will be disqualified and an official warning will be served and the winning vote will go to the runner up of that month.

Once a car has been voted, the Poll will be locked and kept as a record of each months car. The "Next Month" thread will be locked and a new one started.

If there are any problems with anything please PM Dave_irl or Matt

Many thanks,

Starting Jan 2009, I think we will have a few amendments:

-limit of 10 cars per poll to get a more even spread of votes, rather than lots of cars with just one vote.
-two weeks to nominate/submit cars and/or when 10 cars are in, whichever happens sooner.
-no crashed or wrecked 190's, or incomplete shell projects.
-only one 190 in a picture.
-no photoshops.

PS dont forget now we almost have one solid year of 190OTMS, we can put all the winners into a 190OTY 2008 :)

How about producing a Calender from the 12 months winners cars?

:no: We already have the annual calender. I have several unopened copies of this years stashed away. They will be worth a fortune some day. Look out for the thread towards the end of the year if you wish to order for next year. B)
