Fantastic work! My only crit would be the women scaling, why are they so huge?
(next to the car it looks like the car is a toy :) )

Except from this small crit this is an amazing work you did there, congratulations to you

I'm happy now, first time I have posted a 3D project and the first response is good :) thanks Mista. Regarding the models, when planning some of the shots I wanted the models to be shot close up to show of the clothes, etc, as the site is aimed at woman and is based around fashion, etc, but also needed to fit the car and the scene in the final shot, was a bit tricky, and my first attempt at greenscreen compositing :)
