Filmed during the 2CV to Croatia roadtrip. Details here: • 2CV to Croatia: Engine...
My wife asked me what I was watching on TH-cam, I replied; "An Englishman who lives in Wales who is driving to Croatia in a French car via Holland to look at Japanese cars". End of conversation.
@tone167 "tabs, why can't she grasp them..." *husband thinks
My wife just said "I see your watching shite again"
Hilarious - but truth be told!
Quality !
Wife? What's one of those?... That's how sad I am...
In the Netherlands, an enthusiast keeps his ageing Nissan Sunny in concours condition. In the UK, a motoring show destroys them for moronic 'fun'. No wonder we haven't got a show like this in the UK.
I'm loving this trip of Ian's - it's almost like we were there. His model knowledge as the cars arrived was impressive.
SO true !
The Morons are no longer on that show, they are in some Internet wilderness now.
I was truly astounded -- Ian is a living, witty motoring encyclopaedia!
@@robbyxp1 And may they remain there.
@@robbyxp1 and destroy subarus and other things :(
This made me nostalgic for my long departed Mitsubishi Sapporo 2.0.
At 4:04 Silvia gives us a wink! Great stuff Ian!
Was that a standard wink? Can they all wink? I want a winker.
@@martinda7446 I don't think it's standard.
There's a great video I've seen of 2 NA mx 5s winking at each other across an intersection at red lights ;)
@@Aspire198 So Cute
Love the winking Silvia, best car ever!!
Ian you are doing a fantastic job. Please keep up the awesome work
Hi Ian, that Corolla at 10:02 was sold in the UK, I had a neighbour with one and Motor magazine had one as a long termer; it was called the Liftback.
Thanks for featuring my car. I am the owner of the melt down Merc; the Toyota Crown Majesta!
Yeah the outstanding humour in Hubnut video
mooi auto jongen :D
@@alzeNL dankjewel! Erg blij mee!
I missed that, do you have a timestamp in the video?
@@ClaudeSac around 8:00m. He wanted to say that it looked like a Benz, but later on the video he still says it 🤣
[I should probably stop now] [I'll stop now] [I'm stopping] [Ooooh] [Continues]
First time that i have seen seperate twin wipers on the rear of a car.(:-)
Another top video ian.
Severely lacking a Suzuki SC100GX Whizzkid and Mitsubishi Cordia Coupe. :-( Plus, it is called Daihatsu Trevis. I nearly bought one when I lived in Switzerland! :-) Did you notice the Silvia winking at you at the beginning. You left the best to the end! A line of UK Isuzu Piazzas! Totally amazed they still exist. They should be given Knighthoods for keeping them in working condition!
I like how the red Sylvia around the 4:05 mark, winked at you.😉😁😁😁 A lot of Japanese eye candy.🍬🍬🍬🍬
"All your beige are belong to us" Fantastic video Ian, such interesting cars. Thanks!
Can't stop smiling now, thanx. Gonna spend the rest of my Saturday morning playing 8-bit and listening to chip-tunes.
@@jeremyfine1464 FTW my friend
Lovely - my 626 at 6:56 :) was good to meet you Ian! Have on the journey to croatia :)
isnt that an MX6 or was it a different model in Netherlands?
@@VidzVideo mx line didnt start till the later 80's
I just love 70s Japanese cars. The styling is so unique.
@22:50, here is the car I featured in an article last year......talking about pop up headlights with head lamp wipers while some bloke behind him is happily weeing through a fence in the background :-@
Excellent informative piece though mate, keep them coming please :-)
"Impressive beard qualities as well " Lmfao 😅😃 the humour that's incorporated in Hub Nut videos
That glimpse of the Mitsubishi Sapporo brought back memories of the period in the 1980s when we were a 5 Mitsubishi family, though not a single one of our cars was badged as such. For a long time Mitsus were distributed in Canada by Chrysler who rebadged them using their own brands. So, my wife's dad had a Plymouth Sapporo 4-door (the 2-door was sold as a Dodge Challenger, a very unfortunate recycling of a storied pony-car name), my wife had an early base model Plymouth Colt hatchback, her brother had a 4-door Dodge Colt Turbo, his wife had a slightly later Plymouth Colt hatch, and I had a Dodge Colt Turbo hatchback.
Incredible how much nostalgia these cars evoke.
I wish you have captured a MK1 CRX. I love it.
I've lived in Japan for over 25 years, and there are cars I've never seen before in this show...
Joel, there are so many Japanese cars you only see in Japan. You’ll never see them in Europe.
@@gromit3315 Dirk, this is true. But it requires determination to keep a car on the road here for more than 10 years - the system disincentivises the keeping of a vehicle for so long. So many of the really quirky fun cars (from the mid-eighties to the mid-nineties) are now very rare or non-existent on the road. Exceptions are often old European motors like Minis. Quatrelles or the very occasional Allegro in Harajuku. I'm usually laughing too hard to grab a photo of that one.
Joel, where is “here” if I may ask? I had a VW Golf GTi, bought new in 1982 and drove it till it almost fell apart for 27(!) years. My Subaru Legacy is 12 years young, the engine still running in with 130000km’s on the clock. 😄
Dirk, Here is Tokyo, Japan where I have lived since 1993. Almost half a lifetime ago.
Konnichiwa 👋
I have never seen Ian so excited.
Like a 6 year old on Christmas morning😀
Wow - so many familiar cars that you never see anymore - and so many rare ones you never see ever. Amazing!
Honda Prelude ‘all the wiper boxes have been ticked’
Fabulous
Hands up, who else was shouting Paseo at the screen and wondering why Ian couldn't remember the name before Oh.....never heard of that.
Top show coverage mate, best of luck with the trip. Rich
Ha. Same here :D although these first gen models were sold as Paseo's in North America afaik (Cynos was Japan and SE Asian name only, I believe), but these first gen models were not sold in the UK (was it sold in Europe, though?)
I thought it was the Paseo as well
@@Emppu_T. me too
Love the Colts, had a Celeste and a Lancer turbo, wish I had kept them both. 🤧. Both utterly reliable.
A white Suzuki’ swift gti mk1 I believe not a starlet? 101 bhp - want ! Great footage !
Hi Ian,what a video,there was alot of exotic cars turned up at this show,only there are all the Japan cars.the honda prelude at 9:12 looked like a triumph acclaim without the two extra doors.
Lovely Jubbly, you brought a lot of memories back from my childhood in the 70's when i first got interested in cars, many thanks Mr HubNut.
As someone who left school in 84 and started working in a daihatsu garage, it was nice to see the charade, but then you showed us the charmant, it was like being back at Hepworth motors again, great,
Didn't see any corolla 1200 with the ke20 engine though, my 2nd car, and a lovely car to drive
Ian that is a fantastic report! Never seen so many cars that made me say "I want one of those"!!! Absolutely awesome video!!! Cheers from Italy 😊
What an amazing show, loads of cars we got in Australia....unfortunately most are long since scraped.
Wow thanks for taking the time to bring this amazing car show to us, most of the few that I recognize you very rarely get to see at all and not in anything like the condition you see at this show
Phwoor .... double rear wiper action indeed .... fantastic ...
This is just a normal car park anywhere around New Zealand
Nice one Ian, fabulous collection of japanese classics and i loved the bit where the Silvia winked on camera hahaha
Well, that was certainly overwhelming! Amazing episode.
So much to take in what an excellent show so many lovely cars :)
Quite right about the Honda Quintet being sold in Australia as a Rover. Fascinating show and great work, Ian!
Hence, many Aussie believe all Rovers of that era were simply a lazy rebadged Honda.
Just a brilliant video, classic japanese motors in superb condition, Ian commentating with his trademark enthusiasm and knowledge.
Thanks Ian.
Amazing, speaking of Japanese classics, I did get the last Retro Japanese magazine you edited, great magazine so far, I did not finished reading it, since it shares space on my phone with TH-cam after I finish here I going to that app so I finish reading it
A field full of Japanese marvellousness..what a treat. Many thanks for posting this video Mr HubNut.
A Toyota Crown Estate, what a beautiful car. What a fantastic show, and another great video.
Thanks Ian.
My ex-stepdad had a Toyota Camry 2.0 GLI in white (C376 HMB) back in the day. It was a wonderful car with blue Velour interior and digital dash. Happy days indeed. Awesome video😍
In the late 90's I went to Cambodia, 9 out of every 10 cars in the country were Camrys. I asked a taxi driver why this was, he looked surprised that I didn't already know... because Camrys are the strongest, most practical and most reliable cars in the world. At least the older ones were.
Popup headlights with wipers is the best thing ever!
Excellent video, your knowledge of cars is second to none, please keep the video's coming
Thank you for this wonderful video - truly mesmerised!
Absolutely stunning video. Some of the finest old and fascinating Japanese cars I've ever seen. Thanks for posting and keep up the good work. Loving the extended road trip.
Thank you HubNut, that is right up there in your top 10 best videos.
I still have my 1981 Honda Quintet, its an Aussie spec model, but its not in Australia and never has been. That silver one is a second series model with the revised headlights and plastic bumpers. Excellent cars indeed with loads of features even by todays standards.
I've finally done it, I've watched every HubNut TH-cam video! I'm going to celebrate by ordering three HubNut stickers. Go me! 😆🏆 What an epic journey Ian, excellent stuff.
My brother's first car was an 1983 Suzuki Alto. He learned the valuable lesson of changing the engine oil when the bugger seized on him. It was a hilariously tiny car, but could once fit eight people.
Wonderful coverage of a great event! Thank You.
That's one of the coolest shows I've ever watched, very nice!
I think the black sunny coupe might of been a GTi version, rare too
What a fantastic show! Admittedly I am only just now appreciating the Japanese cars but this show is something else. Good to see a 929 Estate (I had a 2 time grey one with BLUE interior including dash, seatbelts, steering wheel.....). My Honda CR-V Gen 1 should go to this next year, it's 22 years old now and metallic orange! Anyway, thank you Ian for another super video, enjoy your day! #2CVtoCroatia
A friend an my father both had Mitsubishi Lancer. One Mark 1 and one Mark 2 (1976 and 1978). He also had a Lancer 1600 GSX of 1980 later on. Like the Turbo in this video but with only a 1600 twin cam, twin carburettor engine. Pity they were not there. Would have loved to have been there. I will be there in 20 years time with my Mitsubishi Space Star, haha.
Great car's great day out by the looks of it. Another good video mate . Glad you enjoyed your weekend.👍👍
“Double the wiper arm; double the joy”...! Quote of the year..!
Awesome- could watch all day! Love the N10 Cherry/Pulsar/310- my first car in 1985. Known as the 310 here in the US. And 4 Isuzu Piazza/Impulse??? What a show.
That is one hell of a show, loved the 70's Datsuns, great styling
I am so going to set time aside next year to come to the Netherlands for this. Classic Japanese Cars are my jam, so this to me looks like absolute heaven!
Enjoyed that. So many designs not seen before
I got back from japan yesterday, and the sheer amount of rare jdm metal was mental.
getting to watch this properly, seeing all those amazing cars coming in, really mind blowing.
Wow.. First welcome to the Netherlands. What a excellent video and what a collection of beautiful cars. Japanese classics are getting more and more interesting nowadays. One day my 2001 Camry should join this event.
Have a safe trip all the way to Croatia. - Cheers-
We did get the Toyota Corolla liftback from the late '70s and early '80s in the UK. A friend of mine had a 1.6DX as his first UK car. Unfortunately their propensity to rust was truly spectacular so most of them passed on a long time ago but they really were rather lovely to drive. We also did get the Corona 5-door hatchback in the UK but I don't think many were sold, they were a bit too modern for that class of buyer in the UK who tended to prefer the much more traditional Cressida saloon and estate. I only really know about them because someone who lived around the corner from me had a Corona hatchback and his wife had a Honda Quintet, so clearly they were hatchback advocates before hatchbacks became staple family car fair...
My head is spinning from the number of cars I have never seen and, almost as often, haven't heard of, even though they are products of major automotive brands! :D
I liked it very much. My favourites were the oldies -- especially the round sports-thing with a small engine (... yes, I will have to watch the video again :)). I also liked that old Lancer Turbo -- I lived in the ignorance of thinking that turbo Lancers started with the Evo I.
What stunning cars! If only I could win the lottery...I'd happily have a whole fleet of these 😁
Amazing cars, thanks Hubnut
I absolutely adore those classic Hondas! All astonishing cars, though!
That Laurel 2.4 just made my day!
We had the late 80's Sapporo, silver with the dash adjustable suspension, bloody spaceship it was.
hi Ian you'r doing a cracking job of editing and keeping up the videos whilst on the road! Thank you
Wonderful Japanese car show with different model names than we had in the USA. Great video!!! Thanks!!!
Just love your completely justified passion for Japanese motors Ian. If only we had such events here in the UK.
Or come over next year :)
What an amazing car show Ian . I went to the derby classic car show last Sunday and I thought it was big this year but it was a fraction of the amount of cars on show here
The Majesta is probably a Toyota Crown Majesta, also comes in Royale and Athlete variants. Great video, Ian, keep it up.
Even the grass looks good quality :-)
Brilliant report mate . Loved it .
Wow fascinating Ian ! brought back a few memories , we had a Honda 600 in the showroom years ago and went surprisingly well , also a Suzuki Whizzkid which must be so rare now , it had the engine in the back and went like a rocket for it's size but the back used to swing out in the corners lol , have you ever seen a Daihatsu Charade turbo three cylinder diesel ? was a smile a minute as went so well , great video thanks :o)
That truly is a Japanese car field of dreams, so many awesome cars from my youth, thanks Ian
Smashing video Ian, its ironic that i was looking to buy a Nissan 100NX and i found one only to find a Hub Nut sticker in the rear window good stuff keep them coming......
Epic stuff sir many many wonderful cars thank you 🙏
Good times indeed. I was all set to get on the comments towards the end to declare what sought of Japanese show is this if there’s no Accord Aerodecks and low and behold.
A truly amazing event and entertainingly commentated as well. Well worth lying down for.
Great selection of models I've never seen. So many variations. Amazing.
G'day from Oz, like your Aussie hat 'sport'! And yes the Honda Quintet you point out was sold here as the Rover Quintet. It was later replaced by another 'Rover' based on the Honda Integra 416i badged as a Rover Vitesse! ha ha. Both models still turn up 4 sale here occasionally. The Mitsubishi Sapporo was sold here as the Magna with slight restyling front and back - it was very successful here. That Toyota Corona 5-door at the end of the tape was sold here, quite popular in its day. Alas I see that no early Gen.1 or Gen. 2 Honda Legend, coupe or saloons turned up.
I don't know what it is about cars with popup headlights I just love the look of them, might get myself an old Japanese car one day
Get yourself a BMW E31. The ultimate in pop-up headlight / driving-light / fog-light systems. Garage it with an Elan S1.
Wow, what a show! Lovely to see so many beautiful survivors. I've never owned a Japanese car! Think I missed out there. Great report Mr HubNut.
I don't have a particular interest in Jap cars, but I love love love listening to you just list cars, slipping in a little titbit of information about what makes it special or interesting. Lot's of nice memories from my childhood though... Although you glossed over the 70s celica STs, they felt like the equivalent of a lamborghini or ferrari to me in those days.
Fascinating truly fascinating, thank you Ian.
Good show, many cars I remember from back in the day, I have 2 Japanese cars in the 2 car fleet :-)) the first is an Mk3 2006 Mazda mx5 in winning blue in stunning condition with low miles, the other I have just purchased is a mk2 Suzuki Swift 1.0l in Adriatic blue, a car in stunning condition for her 16yrs...and only 43,000 miles on the clock:-) I think we have a JAPFEST in Northern Ireland, I'll be sure to take The Mighty Swift along :-)
Brilliant show ! As you said Ian, it's lovely to see SO many unmodified classics in one place . I have fond memories of a JDM '86 Daihatsu Charade (LS?) ,same as UK but without rear seatbelts. My best ever Japanese car was an '02 Nissan Almera 1.8 Sport, very underrated imo. Have fun 😉👍
Lovely cars! I’ve owned 1st gen Civics - had 3 of those a Camry hatch,corolla 4wd wagon and a “Rover Quintet”, loved them all . The flip number clock on the Quintet was awesome! You drive them for a while and sell them, but you almost always want them back....
Wow, where do you look first? What a fantastic sight. Also, I wondered where that Nissan Cedric went to :-) We all guffawed with laughter at someone calling a car Cedric when they first came out but now they are fascinating and we wish we hadn't derided them so much. Another great journey. Cheers
That Cedric 1900 takes me back! In 1965, my Mom bought a new Datsun 410 (Bluebird) in "mint green", while my Grandmom showed up in a 1965 Cedric 1900! Must've been about the only one on the East Coast (Washington, D.C.) at the time. Comfortable car, but plagued by electrical gremlins, but I always like the grille and dual headlights of that model!
5:20 i think that's a mk1 suzuki swift gti actually. i had a carbureted 1.3 as my first car.
yes it is.
The second family car we had when I was a kid was a bright red 4 door Mazda Montrose with chrome grill. I absolutely loved the car as it looked, to my young eyes, so much cooler than the Renault 6 it replaced.
Thanks Hub nut. I would have loved to have gone to that show. That Toyota Corolla is a liftback. I had one an X reg 1.6 SR back when I was 19, didn’t have it for long as it was overcome by rust
Wow.... wonderful stuff. Unadulterated Japanese cars! When my brother started his family in 1981, his Datsun 160J SSS had to go, and he chose to replace it with a Mazda Montrose. Except I think the Montrose name lasted only a year, because his shiny new X-reg Mazda (PAV 19X) was then badged as a 626 and had had a slight facelift. I remember the cheery little two-tone bell that chimed when you opened a door and ahd left the lights on; and also fitting a rather powerful Clarion cassette player into it with him. Happy days :) Oh, and I saw a Nissan Prairie the other day!
Good to see the Toyota Camry Hatch - had one of these in Aus, 1983, 2.0 fuel injected four SV11 model. It just kept going and going, would not die - nearly 30 years old when I sold it
Its mine! It needs Some work but drives amazing!! 😍
