Joomla - 2.5.14
VM - 2.0.22c

I'm using the following code in:
template > html > com_virtuemart > productdetails > default_relatedproducts.php

It's working great but it's taking the image of the main product and using it for the related products.

<?php

$model = new VirtueMartModelProduct();
$calculator = calculationHelper::getInstance();
$currency = CurrencyDisplay::getInstance();
?>

<div class="product-related-products">
    <h3><?php echo JText::_('COM_VIRTUEMART_RELATED_PRODUCTS'); ?> <?php echo $this->product->category_name; ?></h3>
    <p>Check out some of these other products from Us</p>
    <div class="product-field clearfix">

            <div class="related-product-item">

You could compare your code and original code for related. What is the difference?

[gbarkerdesign]

The original code is pretty basic and doesnt give you any control over layout of the related items. The code I posted was something I found ages ago online and it works apart from this element.

The original code is this:

So it couldn't display proper image then?
