SUBCOMPACT CULTURE

The small car blog. Compact and subcompact cars, micro and mini cars. Sometimes things that are also a bit bigger.

If you didn’t know, we have a Mirage. We’ve recently lowered it, put 15s on it, and added the genuine Mitsubishi side sill extensions. Rear sway bar going on this week.

London to Singapore on the back of Ray Hyland's early Land Rover Series. He, his wife, and three children made the journey a few months back and the vehicle was at the NW Overland Rally. And trust me: this thing is small. . . . . #nwor #subcompactculture #landrover #classiccar #landroverseries #londontosingapore #nwoverlandrally #dirt #lifeofadventure #adventuremobile #british #4wd #4x4 #travel #overland #overlander #overlanding #travelgoals #roadtrip #london #singapore (at NW Overland Rally)

Justin's '82 Toyota Corolla is powered by a 2.0 liter turbocharged Ecotec engine out of a Pontiac Solstice! 314 hp/344 tq. Lots of custom fabbed stuff. I've driven it and it's freaking fast! . . . . #subcompactculture #toyotanation #toyotacorolla #wagon #wagonlife #turbo #rwd #dailydriven #swapped #rolla #yotalife #japanesenostalgiccar #toyota #yota #yotawagon #te72 #wagon #carsofinstagram #fast #turbotoyota #turbowagon
