==============

PLEASE NOTE:
Be very careful if by chance you do get a contract offer, some production groups can be very careless with the cars/bikes (may just treat them like props), look over the fine print very carefully. Most will simply bring you on set expecting you to have the car clean, you drive it in acouple of shots, and then thats it - other work may be more wearing on your vehicle.

Also be aware of companies/agencies that take a fee up front/paymeny subscription, they shouldnt! Most do this service for FREE then take a cut out of your payment of work you get instead. All the links provided are guidelines only, there may be more companies out there (we will add them as/when we hear of them).

Something else to consider...
Want to make money from your car? Theres advertising options available if you drive 500 or more miles a month and dont mind having a big logo on the side of your car! Check it out here; http://www.money4space.com/
