    Vehicle Image Posters

    Vehicle Image Posters

    Image Posters are dynamic images you can attach to a vehicle for use in advertising such as on your own website and other websites like Trade Me. An Image Poster for example, can automatically determine the weekly finance repayments of a vehicle and display that directly within the image. Then if you change the price of a vehicle the Image Poster will automatically update with a new weekly finance figure and display that in the image instead.
