35 Images: The best photos from Top Gear magazine in 2018

Only those who work in an automotive media brand know the effort it requires to capture that perfect car photo. It has to be the right location, the right time, the ideal weather, and most important, the right concept. And that’s assuming you hired the proper talent for the job. 

But when it all comes together it creates a moment in time; a golden portrait of a machine in an unforgettable setting. It makes all the hard work worth it. 

Here’s what the UK lads captured in 2018, with all the memorable muscle cars, supercars, hot hatches, and SUVs that made this year another one for the books.
