Japan Trip / Rides 2

January 21, 2018 by Jonathan Chow in Japan, Trips

Second half of my ride-specific pics.

Oh look, the perfect car for everything, aka RS4 Avant.

S class rocking a full Lorinser kit!

Japan has some strange cars, but never would have expected a modded XKR! Looks like it would have come straight out of a catalog from the late 90's.

Tokyo is definitely the place to be for some perfect condition Euro classics!

This 901 seems more fitting going to a meet at Venice Beach than cruising Tokyo, but it works there too!

Admiring the beautiful bikes in this city when suddenly a wild Dodge Ram van appears!

American cars are far from popular in Japan, but whenever you spot one, it's always an interesting model.

Something timelessly classic about the Toyota Century.

Shy little guy

I think I'm in love...

And on the very last night, near our place, I finally ran into a proper R34 GT-R, though I spotted some interesting mods. It has some aggressive venting on the passenger side of the bumper but not the other side. But then it's also rocking Endless calipers and what appears to be BBS RE-MG wheels (!!!), so who am I to judge?

Entering London / Part 2

September 26, 2013 by Jonathan Chow in London

One of the things people warned me about London was the food. "Say goodbye to good food, because it doesn't exist in England." Well, at this point, I can honestly say that stereotype is completely wrong. Since here, we've encountered nothing but great tasting food, and we haven't yet reached for the higher priced meals yet. If food like this breakfast on toast is what we have to look forward too, then we don't mind at all!

She's really excited to be in London, really.

We know about Dover Street Market and Goodhood, but discovering these other boutiques will be a fun experience. It's always great to discover dope pieces from brands you never heard of.

Buildings definitely make up part of London's character. From old to new, none of them are uninteresting. Well, except for many of the flats which are often just bland bricks.

Not the kind of water one would want to swim in. Remember, London is the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution and there's plenty of evidence of that to this day.

Car time again! This is about as perfect of an all-round car to me as it gets. The only way it could get better is if it were an Alpina 2.7.

Little Cappuccino anyone?

Heading towards Central London now.
