For this week’s #MazdaMonday, it’s a long overdue outing for the RX-2. This mint example was restored by Dennis Ray. We absolutely love it. 💛 #Mazda #RX2 #MazdaCapella #JapaneseClassics #NostalgicCar

It’s been a while since we featured a Subaru, so here’s a real rarity in the UK, the Leone GFT from 1979 - together with a fine pick-up, AKA the Brat. ❤️ 📷 CVIS #スバル #スバルレオーネ #Subaru #SubaruLeone #SubaruBrat #SubaruSunday

#SkylineSaturday? Time to share this rare gem: A LHD '71 #Skyline #2000GT sedan This was 1st registered, both in NL and internationally, back in '71. Which could mean this was officially sold here. Seen during a very wet Japan Classic Sunday 2025 #Nissan #Datsun #NissanSkyline

For this week’s #ThrowbackThursday, here’s the #SuzukiSC100, also known as the #Whizzkid in the UK, a fine mix of Italian styling and Japanese ingenuity, developed from the #SuzukiCervo, which itself was based on the #SuzukIFronte #keicar. #Suzuki #SuzukiWhizzKid #Giugiaro
