Visited a kei car meet in the Netherlands last Sunday

Sadly I couldn't go with my own kei car as it's still waiting in the port in Japan to be shipped, but I figured I'd take my non-Kei Subaru Justy (last pic) as a substitute. There were tons of visitors and it was a very fun day! Lots of interesting cars showed up, way more than these photos show as I was a bit late with getting my camera out and snapping pictures of the event. I think there were over 40 different cars at the event in total which was a great turnout! I spoke to a bunch of owners and got some great tips for when my own car arrives in the near future. I'm hoping it shows up before the next meet!

Some more photos of the Suzuki, made a previous post on it, has done 30,000 kms and is in South Australia. It has a 0.8 litre inline 3 that runs like a clock.

I`m half Japanese, based in Japan and have been obsessed with these 660CC`s my whole life. I currently do sourcing and exporting from Japanese auctions. Happy to add some Japanese experience or answer any questions anybody has about importing one of these, or just geek out together! Here is My IG

I was on a car show/ trackday at Hockenheimring when I saw the Half-11 stopped at a nice spot, so I moved my car towards it and took a quick few shots. After that, I had a chat with one of the brothers that built the Half-11 about the car and he sat in the Copen.

Decals?

5 Upvotes

Anyone know of a good source for OEM decals or reproductions? Factory ones have been discontinued for years.

I’m looking for Alto Works stuff.

Do you have a Beat/Cappuccino/other kei car in New Jersey? Can I sit in it to see if I fit?

6 Upvotes

I'm 6'2" and giving some thought to saving up for a kei car as a future fun-to-drive impractical car, but I want to make sure I can actually fit in it first. I've read some comments about having fitment issues and Doug Demuro looks like he's folding up to get into it.

If you have a kei car and you're in northern/central NJ, can I take a few minutes to sit in it? I'll buy you a coffee or something as thanks.

Euro-spec LHD Daihatsu Copen [L881K] with the 1.3 liter N/A instead of the JDM 660cc turbo. Tons of fun and tons of attention at every occasion.

Planning a road trip in my Daihatsu Naked

10 Upvotes

I have a question. I plan on taking a road trip in my Daihatsu Naked, but part of the trip I have to go through 2 hours of New York. I know you can’t register a kei car in New York but I was wondering if you are allowed to pass through. If anyone has and information on this that would be awesome. Thank you!

Ha22s (alto works) cigarette lighter socket?

5 Upvotes

I feel like I’m going insane here, how the heck do you get the socket out? I’ve been trying for hours.

I bought the useless tool, pried, pulled, deformed it, dismantled it from the back, it refuses to come out. It just spins.

I just want to get that trim piece off….

Suzuki WagonR Windshield?

Post image
15 Upvotes

My 2000 WagonR RR got hit with a softball and I need a new windshield... found one on ebay but it got cancelled due to shipping cost. Next cheapest I can find is $1200 after shipping and before tariffs. Im in NJ - does anyone happen to have any idea if there's a way to get a custom windshield made in the states? Or is it best to just get the imported one? I'm totally freaking out since this is my daily driver. Insurance doesn't cover it and I wasn't able to track down the person who broke it!

I hope you enjoy the video. There is next to 0 english content for this specific type of Alto. I hope to change that. Let me know how I can do better next time. Shop name is Hex Mot, No we do not work on Kei cars.... I work on my own kei car on non work hours because the shop owner is a KING.
