Any excuse for a drive. It doesn’t take much to get us out and in the car, so when we heard about crankshaft coffee being relatively local, it seemed like a good excuse to get some shots of the new Dakar hoodie.

Our annual tradition saw its busiest turnout this year, with all three car parks filling up! Whether it be meeting up with friends, going for a drive, a bit of human connection, or simply just to enjoy being around cars. Whatever your reason, coffees and cars exists to bring the community together.
An excellent way to get out and chat to people during the middle bit between Christmas and New Year when nobody really knows what to do. Great to see the @takona.co.uk crew and chat to Meg - she really is driven and it's fab to see.
Nice catch up with people @takona.co.uk cars and coffee at Triumph this morning. Not many photos as talking too much...
Road test of new @takona.co.uk beanie complete. Maximum success. Also tested new jacket, scarf and socks* (*socks not pictured. Please sign up to my premium package for sock pics)
We’ve had a few messages asking how to get one of these, so we’re going to do a good thing out of a rubbish situation. £10 from every one of these will go to the campaign against living miserably. On the site already.
First testers for some new embroidery ideas have arrived. Pretty chuffed with the finish on these, should we add them to the site though?

Guess who learned that Birmingham’s clean air zone resets at midnight and isn’t a 24 hour rolling day. Swear they’ve changed the site wording since we paid for the original clean air travel pass. Guess it’s worth getting this printed and framed as it’s cost £60
As someone has requested a way to replace their incredibly well worn tee, these will be on the site till the end of the year for anyone wishing to grab one. www.takona.co.uk/products/tlk...
3D printed cup holder designed specifically to the original 93 air vent knobs 👌🏻
International Men’s Day. If nothing else it’s a reminder to check in with the men in your life, just a brief chat, a casual catch up, or even letting them know you’ve thought about them. Men often feel isolated, alone, or unthought of, the stigma is changing, but it’s still got a ways to go.
PSA please don’t put your stickers on other people’s cars, especially without asking. This one has left all of its glue behind 🙃
This years RoR was one filled with ups and downs, overcoming challenges, teamwork, and camaraderie. The true spirit of motorsport and something we’re proud to be a part of. Full write up coming soon, catching up on sleep first.
Being overtaken by a pair of LFA’s on a rainy Welsh dual carriageway wasn’t on my bingo sheet for the weekend, but what a treat.
A few quick and dirty pictures of German machinery from this morning’s @takona.co.uk Coffees & #Cars meet in Sawbridgeworth. #classiccars #Audi #BMW #Porsche #Volkswagen
One of these is a smart and stylish way to traverse Europe in comfort. The other is a Bentley
An evening of tinkering and the steam deck is running GT4 to the tv and the Gamester Dual Force wheel is now working with the steam deck. This might be more fun than actually playing the games.
