Capture Attention — Sell Faster

Your Healey deserves to be shown at its best. Great photos don’t just make your listing look professional—they help you attract genuine buyers faster. Follow our quick visual guide to create the perfect photo that tells your car’s story clearly and confidently.

  • Keep it clean: Clear, uncluttered surroundings highlight your Healey’s lines.
  • Go landscape: Only horizontal images are accepted.
  • Stay sharp: Ensure the car is in focus—no blur.
  • Frame perfectly: Don’t crop edges or cut off parts.
  • High resolution only: Crisp images sell confidence.
  • Outdoor light wins: Natural daylight brings out the colour and detail.

Photo Examples — What Works and What Doesn’t

Use the “Perfect” example as your target. Then check the common mistakes below and avoid them.

Top Tip: When framing your Healey, leave a little breathing room around the car — think of it as giving your photo space to shine. This ensures your listing fits perfectly in our layout without trimming off the bumpers or roofline once displayed online.

Perfect Austin Healey listing photo: centred car, uncluttered outdoor background, even daylight, full car in frame
Perfect: Clean, centred, landscape photo taken outdoors with even light and no obstructions.

Avoid These Common Mistakes

Badly Cropped / Framed
Unacceptable listing photo: Austin Healey cropped at the edges, car not fully visible

Keep the whole car in frame; don’t cut off corners or bumpers.

Out of Focus
Unacceptable listing photo: blurred, out-of-focus Austin Healey

Use steady hands and tap to focus; retake if there’s any blur.

Cluttered Background
Unacceptable listing photo: cluttered background with objects obstructing the car

Move bins, tools, and people; choose a clear outdoor space.

Low Resolution
Unacceptable listing photo: low-resolution, pixelated image

Send the original file from your phone/camera—don’t use screenshots.

Over-Exposed / Harsh Sun
Unacceptable listing photo: over-exposed image in harsh sunlight

Shoot in open shade or overcast light to avoid blown highlights.

Tip: Use landscape orientation and stand back a little—then crop slightly if needed to keep the whole car centred.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use portrait photos?

No. Only landscape (horizontal) images are accepted to ensure consistency across listings.

Do I need a professional camera?

Not at all. Most smartphones today capture excellent photos—just focus on good lighting and clear framing.

Can I submit photos of a project or non-running Healey?

Yes. The same rules apply—clean, clear, and well-lit images help attract restoration buyers.

What if my photo is edited or filtered?

We may adjust brightness or clarity if needed, but avoid heavy filters that distort the true colour or condition.
