Down on the Street: bumperless Civic EK

March 3, 2013 / banpei / 0 Comments

I spotted three different nicely tuned Civics on my way to work (and back) and every time I promised myself to take a picture of them. The first one is a four door Civic EF on kyusha mesh rims, the other a dark red/brown Civic Shuttle EE and the last one was this bumperless Civic EK:

Complete with bucketseats, rollcage and a big exhaust. As they are all parked every time on almost the same spot presumably they are owned by the same person. So reckon this as the first post out of three. ;)

Dunno if the owner follows the bumperless craze or it was actually a coincidence…

Down on the Street: many many historic Fiats!

November 18, 2012 / banpei / 0 Comments

Yesterday in a blink of an eye I spotted some old cars parked in what looked like an old dealership. So I parked the car around the block and headed back, and this is what I spotted:

A lot of old historic Fiats were all parked inside an old Fiat dealership. The cars I spotted were: a Fiat visitor bus designed by Bertone, Fiat 128 Coupe, Fiat Dino coupe 2400, Fiat Dino spider, Fiat 130, Fiat 125 and in the back many many more: Continue reading

Down on the Street: Wasabicars Style MR2 AW11

Some of you may think you just encountered a deja-vu and yes you have twice!
First of all: I did feature this AW11 rustoseum over two and a half years ago.

Second of all: in the past two weeks my server crashed twice and last time I lost one day of data. Unfortunately I also lost this posting… Nevertheless I’ll repost it again. :)

I did this video in a similar way as Daniel O’Grady is doing his Wasabicars videos (be sure to check out his videos!): Continue reading

DOTS: little red Mitsubishi FTO

September 23, 2012 / banpei / 1 Comment

In the Netherlands we did receive a couple of the cool nineties-era Mitsubishi products like the Lancer Evo II (and III), GTO (called 3000GT here) and the Eclipse, but the FTO was a Japan-only exclusive model. You can imagine my amazement when I spotted this little red RHD Mitsubishi FTO in my rear view mirror:

Can you see it?

Or here a bit better: Continue reading

Carina Sightings: Carina SE AA60 spotted by Wasabi Cars

Carina Sightings: spotted Carina SE AA60

September 19, 2012 / banpei / 0 Comments

Almost two weeks ago I discovered Wasabi Cars and I’ve been browsing/watching a lot of his videos. Apparently I missed out the video of an immaculate Carina SE AA60:

Youtube user mytank84 requested a video of this car and I must say it is in good condition: Continue reading

DOTS: Bavarian Mazda MX5 NB

September 9, 2012 / banpei / 0 Comments

On our way to Hungary I spotted this Mazda MX5 NB parked in the hotel parkinglot:

The licenseplates in Germany identify the area of registration by its first characters. In this case the car came from Lindau (Bodensee) because the first characters are LI.
For me it was a surprise to see so many Mazda MX5s in Germany (still not as much as in the Nethelands) because I expected it to have a strong competition from the Porsche Boxster and the BMW Z3/Z4 in Germany.
