For those of you with old old old eyes who can't quite pick out the text in the images, here you go:

desmogolf in REV The Ace Cafe is a favourite meeting spot for car and motorcycle clubs. Imagine if a Kallang Macs were to exist in London, the Ace Cafe would be the perfect equivalent. Built in 1938 primarily as a stopping point for motorists in the growing motorway network in Britain, it soon became a popular spot with its 24-hour opening times. It closed down after WWII only to reopen again in September 2001 with the help of die-hard enthusiasts who wanted to see the cafe revived again. Today, not one day goes by without a car or motorcycle event being held there. For me it is surely a holy grail of sorts to be able to see the cafe for the first time.

I chose the Outlaw Japanese Club meet because I know this issue would mark REV's first anniversary. So this time it's all about JDM and the Japanese culture in the UK. You'd be surprised - these Brits really do love their card from the Rising Sun. just like how we in Singapore are having a growing continental tuning car culture, in the UK the Japanese car scene has developed a strong following that rivals that of its continental counterparts. The Outlaw Jap Club might seem bordering on illegal judging by its name but it is actually an extremely welcoming club that 'looks at their members as their most important asset' after having bad experiences in other clubs. They welcome any Japanese car and so on the meet I saw Supras, MR2s, S2000s, Celica, SC430s, 350Zs and oh, did I mention an NSX too?

What caught my eye was the pearl white NSX which was immaculately restored. Speaking to some of the blokes in the club, this is probably one of the finest examples they have ever seen. not one portion of the car shows any signs of its age. The undercarriage is clean, the engine bay is spotless and the front splitter is unscathed.

The interior is red, showing no sign of wear or age. If I had the magic to conjure up a reasonable insurance quote there and then, I would have offered a price for the car. but even then I am sure the owner would not want to sell it. Who would want to sell a mid-engined legend from Honda that once took the fight with Ferrari and won it?

Another surprising drool-worthy car was the MkIII Supra. Its size has to be seen to be believed - it is a huge car which looks elegant at the same time, its sloping rear window pulling over the bodywork and a long, seemingly endless bonnet that makes for a truly handsome car.

As I am eyeing a Mk2 MR2 next year I was delighted to see quite a few of them turn up. I caught up with one owner and spoke to him about his ownership experience. "They're reliable cars. I owned a NA Mk2 before this turbo version currently. I love 'em but like all people who modify their cars we get bored easily. So who knows what I am going to change next." Promisingly, he even provided me with a contact of a MR2 specialist I can go to when I finally get my car. Perfect. Shortly after, a white MR2 with a "BOOSST" plate turned up. It's low-slung looks, huge tyres and beautifully cared for paintwork stopped everybody in their tracks when it showed up.I know it did for me, sealing my decision about what my next car should be.

As I finished taking all of my pictures I retired to the cafe to have the famous breakfast that the cafe is known for. It didn't disappoint. But what completed the day was what I saw stickered on one of the walls prominently - "Never Give Up Japan". Cheers for that.

Hope that helps :biggrin:

Dave, did you type all of that out?! That's incredible! Thanks for your hard work!

Sorry for the delay for the PDFs - I am still waiting for them from my editor. Should be with me in a couple of days.

Anyway, follow our mag on FB - our magazine is completely free but unfortunately we only distribute in Singapore.

We are also really keen to feature some cars if possible. I'll be doing the photoshoots though so my photos aren't exactly top quality. :x Perhaps PM me if you're interested and I'll see how we can go from there.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I'm really egging to go out and buy my MR2 now (NA only due to insurance) but I want to build some NCD first!
