We didn’t feature any drift bangers for a while so we’ll post two today. On one side we really love this wrecked style thats mainly associated with young kids who don’t have the spare cash for paintjobs and brand new parts. We can’t really imagine wrecking our cars like this on the other side though.
We said it many times before and we’ll say it again: New Zealand has the one of the most amazing grassroot car scene there is. Taking your car out to do some skinds in the night is something as natural in NZ as it is in Japan. Their 86s often look simple, but dont get the wrong impression, they drive them hard all the time.
The UK and Irish boys dont mess around when it comes to AE86s. Their cars are tough looking, raw and driven hard all the time. Ben’s kouki Levin from Garage Southern Style is just the case.
Our first two car features focused on Corollas from places with the biggest AE86 scenes – the US and Ireland. But theres a lot of 86s worth mentioning over here in continental Europe too, like this serious Levin owned by Tom from Luxembourg.
Ireland is home to some of the finest AE86’s in Europe, Killian’s Team Tekno Levin or Jerry’s Turbo Coupe being just the tip of the iceberg of their amazing 86 scene. There are dozens of Irish Corollas that deserve the same attention but don’t recieve it. We’re going to change that.
