East Coast Japanese Meet - October 2022
A Local meet to me has quickly become one of my favourite ways to burn a few hours on a weekend. Based up near foxhall stadium at the old American Air Museum, its the perfect blend of Japanese cars, Dogs & Socialising.
Its so cool to feel like you’re attending something without the Instagram brigade being front and centre, everyone is equal and enjoying just looking at & talking about cars. The forgotten enjoyment of owning something so special.
I love the array of cars on show, from the weird, to the wonderful, to the rare to the most desirable, everyone is parked together, no separations, no VIP area, no special location for the friends of the organisers, its just come in, pay your £2 that goes towards the running of the venue, buy a bacon sandwich and have a chat about some cars
A Nissan S-Cargo, one of the weird and wonderful little Retro styled vans
As always there was a couple of absolutely outstanding cars. One being this Toyota Supra Mk4
Engine bay was the perfect blend of OEM+, along with the exterior being flawless, with the car sat on a stunning set of BBS LM’s - An Absolute classic.
Perfection.
This absolutely stunning Nissan Silvia S15 was another stand out car for me, but right now, i feel pretty useless explaining much of it!
Things I cannot tell you about this car :
What body kit it has
if it was built in UK or Japan
What its history is
What power it is.
Now these are the peices of Informatino I hope to learn one day, i really hope this stunning machine comes to another & I get to chat to the owner about it. It just had just a Hot Versions Aura around it. I loved it.
Violent D on show at the event with such an impressive booth, I love Craig & how he brings Japanese Car Culture to Essex!
Some of the awesome doggos at the event!
It really is my favourite meet that is held locally to me now, I love going & I will be attending most of them next year along with taking our trade stand. This one, unfortaunetly one of my Migraines ruined the day before the meet for me, so I phycially counldnt go and load the Car & trade booth with all the stuff, so I decided just to take the Silvia up anyway for a little rip, blow the cobwebs out & have a really nice morning just talking about cars. I really liked it. I hope you’ll come along too.
Thanks again East Coast Japanese for hosting. I’m gutted this is the last one of the year, maybe we have a little winter get together at the 6TWO1 Shop in December…. stay tuned!
