Well this was an odd one. Originally it started out as a Club Retro Rides meet, but somewhere along the line the venue had published the date as part of their regular themed Sunday Cars and Coffee type meets, which actually probably wasn't a bad thing in retrospect because I've been having crazy comms problems with Club RR emails. Also I realise now there was A LOT on the weekend I chose to do this. So I put out a couple of messages on here, an Instagram story a few days before and then a post the night before (I didn't want it to be tooo manic as I didn't really know what to expect space wise).
Turns out we had room outside the front of Industry and Supply for about 10 cars. There was also another Cars and Coffee going on down the way a little bit at the unfortunately named Gasoline Juice, so it was double bubble. When both had run out of room cars ended up getting parked just generally around the place, which made for a nice vibe.
The very first two cars to arrive were this MX5 powered Viva and the Cavalier next to it, which is going for paint soon and is full on Max Power era car, owned and built by someone who I suspect wasn't even of walking age when Max Power was a real thing but that is kinda cool in its own way.
This Starion has been to a few RR events now, the owner is great, super enthusiastic about this and their other slightly obtuse Japanese cars. Made me wish I'd bought a Starion instead of my Sunny to be fair. Maybe there is still time to add one to my life.
HARDCORE bought along his daily, which as dailies go is very very cool
Hotrod and Almera adam73bgt and friend en route to Cov Motofest after hanging out with RR folks for a bit. The Hotrod was a friend of the owner of Industry and Supply which was a nice addition to the line up.
This 240Z was meeting a friend (who had a nice BMW 2002) for a coffee at the other meet, but parked up with us and looked spectacular
Cappucino and Mini were together I think, Mini is for sale, I've got a high rest enough photo to make out the details if anyone wants them. Always nice bit of variety at RR things
More to come...
