I once again attended @AutoalexCars' ShedFest, a show dedicated to the worst cars in the world, so of course took it as an opportunity to reveal my mk1 Renault Twingo to the world! At the same time as my YouTube video went live, I pulled the covers off in front of the crowd, alongside @tavarish, @MarkMcCann64, @Ratarossa, @MotorAddicts and @mgcharoudin, but it was @MikeBrewerMotorsUK offstage who provided the harshest reaction to my new car...
I started my journey at Cars & Cuppas at Greendale Farm Shop, Exeter. I brought my Chaser along to a lot of people's delights, and dragged Chloe around the showcars that also frequent the meet. Whilst there, we inspected the farm animals and later caught some of the cars leaving. The latter part of the video features my first ever evening car meet, which was a small-scale static meeting at The Piston Club @ The Stag in Stratford Upon Avon. We now host evening meets there every 2nd Wednesday of the month, all showcars are welcome and free to display! This leads us all up to the run up of AdamCFest on 27th May 2024!
I finally bought a car I've been dreaming about since childhood, but not all is as it seems. £350 plus transportation costs later and I have a new lawn ornament with big bills expected. What should I do with this weird piece of turd?
This was the unique showcase that was Petrolheadonism Underground 2024! I found a perfect way of avoiding the mayor's ridiculous ULEZ scheme and discussed legalities around the subject. I later walked around the show to see how the scheme really affected it this year!

The FINAL PART of 2024's amazing JapFest Silverstone, which is part 3 of the cars leaving the show. By the time I filmed this video, the policed had upped their presence and were seemingly everywhere! This is what happened...
This is part 2 of the cars leaving JapFest Silverstone, which eventually saw the usual police presence and coned traffic control after a great amount of accelerations off the roundabout.
I was invited to Plymouth by JapRiders to capture their final car meet, labelled 'One Last Ride', which aimed to be the largest finale in the South-West of England. The police were aware of the meet, and attended to witness a road-legal LS7 V8 Mazda RX7 race car arrive and capture the amazement of all around it!
Here is the long-awaited first part of cars leaving JapFest Silverstone, which saw some of the greatest accelerations from some of the greatest JDM & Japanese cars in the show! Parts 2 & 3 coming soon.
I took my girlfriend's Toyota iQ to the latest Reading Japanese Meet, because last month I was pulled over in my 350Z on my return from the venue! So I discuss some of the police's actions at this infamous meet and how to behave and enjoy the meet properly.
Here is my entire JapFest 2024 vlog! 12 hours of non-stop filming from arrival to departure (so not including travel) always provides me with some excellent content, so here is an overview of my day!
Here is PART 2 of the legendary arrivals into Silverstone & @fastcarmagazine's JapFest, which features many more revolutions, a few breakdowns, some rare motors and a fed-up driver behind a flame-spitting R35 GT-R!
I once again returned to Brunnchen, the famous YouTube Corner of the Nurburgring, during my trip there for Car Freitag. I sat there for an hour to see how much action I could capture, and later spent another hour at one of the other famous corners for fails, wins, mishaps and laughs.
This was my Birthday celebration at Tucked At The Museum, which I used to reveal the new livery on my Toyota Chaser JZX100 Tourer V! I arrived early to capture arrivals (full extent in a previous video) and later drove in to show off the new look. Afterwards I checked out some of the slammed, cambered and stanced cars on display!
This is part 1 of the immense arrivals video from this year's JapFest at Silverstone, which features an insane collection of Nissan, Subaru, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Mazda and Hondas revving, shouting and screeching on their way in to the show!
Here is my video from the Tankstelle (petrol station) of the Nürburgring, featuring a lot of cars leaving the area. The local police soon joined and moved on a lot of YouTubers, so I captured all I could for the rests of the day!
I took my freshly-wrapped Toyota Chaser to Tucked at the Museum to celebrate my Birthday weekend and captured the cars arriving at the show. These were some of the lowest cars I had seen in a while, and mark the start of the British car show season! However one of the cars that turned up destroyed his propshaft when pulling away from the lights.
I visited Castle Combe for their Spring Action Day, and after capturing arrivals (in my previous video), I headed straight for Quarry corner to see how the public cars got on around the infamous corner. However, after a sudden rainfall, there was one incident that stood out from the rest!
This was the Nürburgring's official season opener day, nicknamed Car Freitag, which I attended with my friends, @Munch997, @DDMHistorics and @1Guy1Skyline. We drove through the night to provide you with this video that captures the day from start to end! The police were noticeably a whole lot more present this year, compared to during last year's antics, but that didn't stop most people's desire to have fun!
These were some of the cars arriving at Castle Combe's recent Spring Action Day. There were various clubs arriving together as well as some high-powered Japanese and German whips. Make sure you're subscribed as I later went into the site to have a look around at all of the cars (some used different arrival points) as well as the track action at Quarry corner!
This was March's iteration of the Reading Japanese Meet, which I visited in my 350Z to explain how the UK car scene is not as bad as it may be portrayed during winter months.
I finally did what I have always wanted to do and had a drift livery installed on one of my cars, my JZX100 Toyota Chaser Tourer V. However, I do not drift, and nor have I done any major power mods to the car. So was this the right way around to do it? I explain in the video...
I attended the recent Essex Car Meet in my Toyota Chaser, which ended up being quite the drizzly day. Whilst that didn't stop the immense turnout, it did dissuade the police from staying put. Although they did make a comment in jest about my car...
This was the recent CitySmokersUK meet that I attended as a bit of a last-minute decision, due to the fact that this was a last-minute meetup too. Hosted in Basingstoke, we attended 2 locations that ended up in a few mishaps for some...
Part 4 (the final part) of your favourite annual compilation, the weirdest fails, wins, moments, spots and occurrences of 2023. Featuring car shows I attended from September to the end of the year! Links to the relevant clips are below with timestamps.
I attended a meet hosted by HC Meets, which was originally meant to be held in Bognor Regis, but after a changed location we ended up in a Chichester multi-story car park. It was one of the loudest meets I've been to for a while, mostly due to the pops & bangs, but the supercharged Mustang was a beast too! This prompted the speedy arrival of local security, who did not predict the roll-back of a recently-arrived MG. After capturing this scene, they found me and thought the police would be interested in seeing my footage.
I popped down to The Stalls' Sunday Startup event after seeing the business of their previous meet. I was greeted by a nice range of classics, supercars and modified cars and noticed that I was just a stone's throw from James May's pub (and house incidentally). So after filming the cars leaving I went to see if the pub was open yet.
This was another @citysmokers_uk meet, which this time took place in the Winchester area. However, due to the poor design of the venue's entrance, several cars kept running over and literally crashing into the road's kerbs! This theme continued throughout the night as we toyed with various other locations.
I visited Podium Place for a Gassed Gang meet hosted by YouTuber @officially_gassed and captured the cars, mostly BMWs, arriving. However due to limited space, the hosts had to reserve a few for certain cars, which seemed to anger one S15 in particular!
This month's Reading Japanese Meet was quite the civil war between Japanese owners, non-JDM owners, the police and football fans! In all the chaos I captured the scenes inside the meet, as well as arrivals and departures of the show.
I joined the recent Carhuna Cars & Coffee event in my Cobra to see a very special car that they had in their collection. The event attracted the attention of hundreds of other people, who were amazed at the turnout of the meet! When the cars started leaving, as did the chaos!
I was invited to spend the weekend at Autosport International. So I brought my most race-car-looking car with me, my AC Cobra replica, and joined Petrolheadonism on stage as we revved and chatted about our cars. Another guest at the show was @MatArmstrongbmx, who brought his twin turbo Lamborghini Gallardo, his running McLaren 720S shell and his new project that, on the surface, seems impossible!
I've wanted to travel a little more for the car meets I visit, and because there aren't many daytime meets at this time of year, I drove to Peterborough for a Culture UK and Send It Central meet. However, before I left, the police issued a dispersal order on the area. So I chose a subtle car to blend in and see where the evening took me...
This was the recent HC Meets shutdown of Southampton and its surrounding areas, which I attended in THE MIGHTY ACCORD! However the police's attendance was pretty instant, and anyone making the slightest bit of noise appeared to end up in their bad books...
This was the recent @rcmeets6420 meet that begun in Aldershot and travelled across the local area after an initial umarked police officer threatened attendees of Section 59s if we were not gone within 10 minutes!
I found out about a top secret, highly exclusive hypercar meet and drive hosted by Hypralusso at Octane Collection, so did my best to work out the best way to see the cars involved. I did a great job and saw some of the world's best supercars and hypercars on the road and parked up, to later witness a rare bump-start of a Jaguar XJR-15!
Please note: the commentary in the video was my initial understanding of an incident. The damage was caused when the police car drove past the crowd, and was not intentional vandalism. Myself and @ZachsGarage did not agree with the actions from this person(s), but continued to enjoy a comparatively chilled evening in his Ferrari 488 Pista.
I joined a recent meet by City Smokers UK in my Toyota Chaser, which began as a large static meet at Beaconsfield Services. We later travelled towards High Wycombe for a couple of other locations that included drift spots, which led us past an accident from members of the public and an angry local man!
I joined Sam from @Hardupgarage to attempt to start his Cadillac Coupe De Ville 'Snoop De Ville' that was once in the possession of Snoop Dogg himself! After successfully spinning its tyres, we moved on to Sam's Ultima, and ultimately ended up at my 350Z that needed a bodged repair...

For something a little bit different, I joined a Stop-ULEZ Convoy that protests a matter that will affect all of us petrolheads, if it hasn't done so already! The ULEZ (Ultra-Low-Emissions-Zone) was initially brought in to combat emissions in central London, where pollution from vehicles was at a notable level. However during Sadiq Khan's reign as mayor, he has expanded the zone to areas that just don't need it, taxing the poor and forcing thousands to either sell their cars and replace with far more expensive, not necessarily cleaner, vehicles, or pay £12.50 for every day they leave their driveway. Let's bring awareness to more car enthusiasts about this issue that may not end until the whole country is taxed.
I joined @hcmeets for one of their car meets, this time in the Southampton & Portsmouth area. There were 4 locations, which were all joined by local police cars, marked and unmarked. I decided to try and tag along with a police convoy to one of the car meets as they found the drift spot and shut it down!
Every 3 years I seem to create a new turbo sound compilations. So, well, 3 years later, here it is! However I've filmed so much that there will be a part 2 (or a part 4 based on how many in total) coming up too! These clips were all recorded by myself at various events and meets that I attended throughout the years 2020-2024.
I was invited to an exclusive open day at one of the greatest car collections in the area, so thought it best to bring the Chaser with me (for some reason). @ZachsGarage offered a warm welcome, which I responded to with a 'rev it' sign and donuts on his lawn...
I popped along to a recent @_uk_car_scene car meet in the Government's ULEZ zone, which was not the busiest for sure. I later moved to locations 2 and 3 to see what Sadiq Khan's London is like for car guys right now.
Part 3 of your favourite annual compilation, the weirdest fails, wins, moments, spots and occurrences of 2023. Featuring car shows I attended from July through to September. Links to the relevant clips are below with timestamps.
This month's Reading Japanese Meet was an eerie one. The turnout was different to the norm, whether that be Japanese cars, impostors or police. I caught a few of the greatest arrivals and departures to and from the event, including that of an insane Time Attack Subaru that the police seemed to take a fondness to..
Part 2 of the strangest and funniest moments to occur throughout the 2023 car show season, including fails, wins, hiccups and shouts from car windows. Relevant videos from each clip linked below.
This was Bicester Heritage's incredible Sunday Scramble, which I attended in the brisk cold of January in my AC Cobra replica. I later caught the cars leaving, including a familiar M-Spec R34 GTR that was too late for entry!
I attended a recent CitySmokersUK meet and teamed up with @ZachsGarage in his Lamborghini Aventador to experience a different perspective to the meet. Whilst trying to leave the first location, the police make the mistake of believing that Zach was revving the car, but later pull us over again after finding a genuine reason..
