As a previous poster said, they're a bit over sharpened and could do with a bit more noise reduction. Three of them are a little underexposed too I suspect which increases noise.

I'd also try and shoot at base ISO whenever possible - there is no need at all to go to 400 with the black racing car and the spitfire. The spitfire could be exposed a bit more to the right at base ISO and you would have a much cleaner image. Even the one with the girl could have a lightly slower shutter speed and a drop in ISO and / or a boost in exposure to get a cleaner image.

With printing, use someone like DS Colour labs. They don't mess with your images with their default cooking parameters and they are cheaper. Ring them up if yo get stuck. You'll get someone who knows what they are talking about rather than Jessops which is a company without merit.
