Less than 15 minutes away from me

I've seen that orange Lexus quite a few times on my commute.
I'm glad to say I haven't seen that BMW pick-up-thingumy-jig!
It's my neck of the woods too . I've seen that orange Lexus quite a few times on my commute.

I liked the BMW pickup... HK car regs were so stifling, I'm happy to see anything with an angle grinder taken to it that can be driven on the road! Haha.

I really want to take mine on track but don't think the brakes would be up to it

Very cool cars! What a difference in light compared to HK. Was better over there
The UK has generally far better light than HK. Golden light is common and the long sunrises and sunsets are wonderful. Of course, HK can have some dramatic light and weather, but it's uncommon compared to here.EDIT: I think it looks like HK has great light as almost all of our HK shots were early in the AM. We would usually pack up at 0930 as the light was way too harsh and flat to take decent images.

I was hoping you'd see this! I was hoping that was you too, but couldn't remember exactly which model you have. Yes, good to see so many Japanese cars.
Not mine I'm afraid as I'm the next gen along from that one, also as it's in a bit of a mess I'm not taking it out so much and my first show will be JDM Combe in July followed by Simply Japanese at Beaulieu 
Depending on your location there's usually an interesting mix of stuff at the Winchester Auto Barn they just did the March breakfast meet which had cars all over the place from EK9 Civic's right up to a F40.

Thanks for the heads up! Not too much of a trek for me. I will try and find out when upcoming ones are.Depending on your location there's usually an interesting mix of stuff at the Winchester Auto Barn they just did the March breakfast meet which had cars all over the place from EK9 Civic's right up to a F40.
Went along to the Wheelsday 2022 event in Aldershot yesterday. Wow. Just, wow. What an insane turnout of vehicles! A flavour for everyone. Here are a few random highlights below...
And here are all 1,400 pictures that I've edited since yesterday. I went for coverage over creativity as far as the photography went, but well worth a look just to see the gems that were in attendance: https://sundaymorningdrive.pixieset.com/15thapril2...

Good evening PHeads! Thought I'd give you a little bit of an update of what's been going on. Whilst my mate continues to shoot the car scene in Hong Kong, I have been getting out and about locally to a few events. I'd like to do more, but as always work gets in the way. Still, many, many, many photos have been shot and here are a few from here and HK in recent months. You can check all of them out at www.sundaymorningdrive.com

Woah
Even moving back from a place with insane cars in HK, I have spent a lot of time uttering this sentiment since seeing some of the modded and classic cars in the UK.andrew said:
+1
+1 for you, sir!News from HK regarding the car scene is a little bleak. They've now introduced a new rule which basically makes it impossible to bring over and register any car that is over 20 years old (link below). This is not good news at all for the many fans of classic (and let's be honest, not very old at all) cars in the region and, as you can see from our many photos in HK, 20+ year old cars make up a big proportion. This is all in the name of 'noise and pollution' - pull the other one, it's got bells on.

Hello PHers! I trust you had a good long weekend. The idea of a full working week ahead is not an exceptionally giddy one, so I thought I would make your Monday brighter with some eye candy from yesterday's Haynes Breakfast Club meet down in Sparkford. What an epic spread of cars to suit every taste! Here are some of the highlights.
PS I also created a separate thread with the photos. I thought I may start doing that going forward (continuing to also pop them in here), just because there's so much more UK content now.
Enjoy!

lovely photos as always. Lots of v cool vehicles in there. Naughty defender driver on his phone! Also that M5 with the light bar... legal??
Cheers! To be fair the Defender was in a stationary traffic jam already in the confines of the location. The light bar 5-series seemed legit...Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
