It has begun! After sharing a small lockup (70m2) with a mate (Berendd on here), and then moving to a bigger 120m2 lockup with another mate we were having space problems again. So what do you do then? Find 2 other mates and rent an even bigger barn! This week we're moving in, but the landlord needs the front entrance for a couple of months, so we can't build the wall at the rear of our part of the barn yet, but as soon as that is done, we can rearrange cars and make some shelves as it's a big mess atm ;D There's even a little office, where we can sit down and drink tea, so it's almost like a dutch Area52 ;D At the back, behind the white Suzuki Swift is where our part ends, and where we will build a wall soonish

Very nice - I hope to be in Utrecht a few times this year, so might have to 'borrow' a company car and pop down if that's ok?

That's a nice collection that, about 80% of all the cars I want to own! I'm guessing that's not a real R-Sport though? ;D

No, it's a 360 GLT with roller paint job and it's now waiting for a Turbo engine conversion. I didn't know they painted it to make it look like something though! ;D Every day is a school day

Here be the AE86(x2)/v360 owner/sufferer checking in . I'll be there tomorrow getting the trueno running again. Damn CA18DET custom wiring jobbo flaked out on me last time I was working on it. Looks like the ignition relay has come loose. And yes, the old grannyshaker volvo was painted to resemble the R-Sport styled rallycross champion of it's day. Been my trackday beater for years, now finally have the space to start work on the B21ET engine that I bought for it 5 years ago (how time flies..).

last weekend we've bought a tire machine! as you can see from the pic, it works brilliantly ;D It was cheap (for a tire machine!), but geared up for motorbike tires, so a little modification was needed to make it work for car wheels again!
