Google have uploaded their latest streetview stuff onto their site now.

They visited my house last thursday, can tell by what is on the drive at the time.

amazing quality in the pictures, go and check your own house out Big Grin

I wasnt holding out much hope when I looked at my flat in glasgow and the old rover was still parked outside (scrapped in 2008) but Im well impressed with this for an area of rural scotland which used to be so bad that on the normal maps you couldnt identify roads before the map scale wouldnt advance...

Haha, you can see my house on normal google maps with the black CavT on the drive, then when you zoom right in and streetview takes over it suddenly changes colour....

If its already in high res, they havent gone round and redone it, they have just added to the existing database so that now is basically has everywhere on it, not just the bigger places like it did have, cause you are london you were one of the earlier places to get done.

Wonder how long it is between them doing the normal aerial shots, if you look at my house you can see the old black turbo, then as you zoom in and it goes to street view it changes to the red turbo with my mums old 306 cab parked behind it..
