When you picture Tokyo and car culture what comes into your mind?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before we arrived here, we probably had the same image in our minds as you. Colourful bozuzoku madness. Phat dished \u00fcber chavitutde wrought in candy and neon. That and dinky Kei cars, tiny boxes with Salary Men slumped behind the wheel on the drudge.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a hint of truth in this, for sure – but what\u2019s actually more quintessentially Tokyo, for us at least: is this absolutely immaculate old Toyota Landcruiser. To say that the \u00a0Japanese keep their cars clean and well looked after is an understatement. And to say that they revere classic engineering -that\u2019s also obvious.<\/p>\n

What actually burns into the cortex about Japanese car culture is actually a sense of understated style.<\/p>\n

And this \u2018cruiser, in all its beige glory – seems to encapsulate it all!<\/strong><\/p>\n
