“Emotion” is one of those cars you can’t just walk past. Candy Apple Green, shining like it’s been dipped in sugar, sitting just right on 16-inch Work Emotions. This Mk1 Golf was put together in the backyard at Street Crew Customs by Aadil, his dad and his brothers. Just family hands, late nights, laughs, arguments and those “wait, let’s try this” moments. Under the hood, it’s rocking a 2.0L KR lump with throttles, and an engine bay and undercarriage detailed to the point of obsession. Spotless!

Look closer and you’ll catch the imported touches - Porsche 924 handles, ultra-rare front and rear quarter pop-up windows with all the chrome trims and seals, imported black bumper beadings; all blended in like they were always meant to be there. And what about those VR6 Mk3 vents located in the chin spoiler, LED-modified orange reflectors that are now park lights, and those one-of-a-kind front seats? Everything flows, everything matches, everything has a reason. This is proof of what happens when a family decides, “Let’s build something cool.” Take a bow.

Freddy Thomas’ Candy Apple red Datsun GX isn’t just about numbers, though with 400kW on tap, it can light up the rears. We feature Freddy because he’s taken a beloved little classic and turned it into a proper Street-Cruiser/Supercar-Bruiser. He's blended an Nissan SR20 turbo powerplant with personal touches like handmade steel arches and a perfect paintjob. Inside, it’s all race-ready with lightweight Thurteen Worx race seats and a rollcage. It’s the kind of car that makes people stop, stare and (as Freddy explains) call it a Christmas tree. But Freddy doesn’t care, because it’s all about lighting up the rear tyres and then lighting up a smoke.

🚨 Back to the Future: Travis Poulter’s Datsun 1200 is a thirty-year family treasure, blending classic seventies style with subtle turbo power and helluva nostalgia. In ‘95, his dad swapped a guy from Rhodesia for the Datsun and became the family daily and the car he learned to drive in when he was eight years old. He and his brother spent countless hours in the back seat, turning it into their own playground before being parked for a decade. During lockdown, Travis and his uncle restored it. Staying true to its roots, the 1200 features a modest turbo A14 engine and an authentic factory look. Finished in original Datsun White, it rides on custom 15-inch steel wheels handmade from Hyundai i10 rims, widened and perfectly tucked under the arches for a clean, factory look. The ultimate Saffa cruiser! 🇿🇦 🇿🇦 🇿🇦
