Retro Toyota gathering for pre-1990 Toyota Ace Cafe London 11 August

After the great success of last years meet, we will be back at Ace Cafe later this year!

Brought to you by Sweet Oblivion, The Corolla Brotherhood, Eight-Six.co.uk and Oishi Performance and Grafix.

The 11th of August was the closest day we could get to tie into the worldwide 8/6 day events.

While this is a Retro Toyota event, other retro Japanese cars are welcome!

Please share this with anyone and everyone that is interested in Retro Toyotas!

Any questions let me know.

Lots of cool Toyota's there last time, we had some MK1s attend too.

After the event last year (which was incredibly hot) we shot off to a pub for a nice cold beer. :+:

Let me know if you want to attend and I'll let Brother Chay (organiser) know. :)

*cough* *cough*

Last year's was a great event, some awesome cars turned out (and the first time I'd ever seen a KP60 Starlet!) with some pretty sweet engine swaps and some true classics. Had a good catchup with the IMOC peeps who attended as well (many just viewing rather than exhibiting).

I will try and pop down if I'm around but a lack of Japanese car will mean I'll be parking outside :(

You can come, but the idea is to show pre-1990 Toyota's. Tbh, Mike we had some MK2's in the mix last year so it's not a hard and fast rule in reality.

We'd give priority to pre-1990 cars, but as long as there's room I'd doubt there'd be any issue with putting your car on display. This is what happened last year.

I really wanted to come last year but it clashed with some birthday plans.

This one is already in the diary so I have no excuses.

Now things have changed a bit I *might* be able to get there in a Datsun. It should be turning up on a flatbed this week so we shall see.

Edit: Nope, scratch that. Just seen the date, I will be in Nottingham on a stag do!
