    GR86 Some pics of my work in progress.

    It’s a great looking wing, I first saw it in late 2024 but couldn’t find it anywhere. I think it suits the car better than anything else I’ve seen. It appears to stick on with 3M tape on the Amazon listings I’ve found...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I expect that’s happened while parked, not while driving. Pretty sure the electric blue is a single stage plus clearcoat. Lucky it’s on the spoiler and not a large panel. Repair will likely be £150 - £250, plus the cost of getting new PPF.

    GR86 GR86 values at the end of 2025, are they worth it and what else can you get?

    I got the same estimated sale price with 11k miles. I did one back in November and got £28,575, so up £1,450 in 4 months for some reason. If Motorway is correct I’m looking at 4% annual depreciation. I don’t know why I check to be honest, I have no intention of selling until at least the 10 year...

    GR86 How many of each colour?

    There you go 😊 Blue will cover sapphire and electric blue, but everything else covers one paint code as far as I’m aware.

    Event Sportscars in the Park 3/5/26 Newby Hall, Ripon

    My son is obsessed with Sonic (the hedgehog), and Sonic (the GR Zoo member) rides with a Sonic (the hedgehog) cuddly toy.

    Event Sportscars in the Park 3/5/26 Newby Hall, Ripon

    It works out half the price of a family ticket to visit Newby any other weekend, and it’s a place we like to go anyway, so it’s a no brainer. She just gets a bit bored looking at the cars so I probably won’t be round much as we’ll be in the gardens. I parked with Northern Retro Toyotas last...

    GR86 Luggage Recommendations

    It was time for us to get some new suitcases for checked luggage, and one of the things I wanted to be able to do was fit 2 of them in the GR86 - just in case we ever needed it to fill in for the “practical” car. This seemed like a tall order, but I managed to find some 2 wheel it luggage cases...

    GR86 Phone holder solutions

    Finally got around to taking a picture of my mount. It’s an ESR for MagSafe car mount with an AliExpress right angle braided cable. A 1m cable is sufficient to get to the 12V socket behind the glovebox...

    GR86 AUTOID

    They’ve just released another video, full Adro body kit. Not really a fan of this kit in general, but looks passable on a red car in their promo photos. Obviously taste is subjective, but I don’t think the kit suits a black car at all. No contrast in the bumper, very little contrast with the...

    GR86 AUTOID

    I’m subscribed, quite liking the series to be honest. New wheels and lowering springs so far. Also did a second video further introducing the car, going through what he likes (mainly the drive) and what he hates (mainly the cheap interior). Still keeps saying it’s overpriced despite the pricing...

    GR86 GR86 values at the end of 2025, are they worth it and what else can you get?

    The people advertising the over-RRP delivery mileage examples are dreaming. If anyone wanted a delivery mileage GR86 they could have easily got one of the second allocation at RRP in late 2023. Screams failed attempt at scalping, my heart bleeds. And I have no idea what the owner of the black...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    After a long overdue wash and wax yesterday (over 3 months!) I’ve taken it for a Christmas Day drive to see family. Bright red and full of presents, it’s basically Santa’s sleigh! Merry Christmas all!

    GR86 Bottles that fit?

    That was me here I think: https://www.gr-zoo.com/threads/armrest-cupholder-compatible-flask.7955/ That AliExpress link is dead, but this one works: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009683635245.html

    GR86 First service tomorrow - anything I should ask Toyota to confirm?

    If anyone is worried about their key battery dying while you’re out, you can sleep your spare key and keep it somewhere in the car. You can then access the car using a 5 digit code entered by pressing the boot release button a bunch of times. The access code also comes in useful if you lose...

    GR86 Red, Facebook

    That’s nearly 2 year old content lifted from another Dull Men’s Club Facebook group. Can’t find him here under his real name.

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    Having only done about 300 miles since the second service 10 weeks ago, I’ve decided to install a battery tender to stop me feeling that it “needs a run” every week or so. I’d normally do about 1000 miles in that time, having done almost exactly 5,000 miles per year for both years of ownership...

    GR86 What did you do with your GR86 today

    I emailed Toyota GB who set my dealership straight. Got the call to book in within a couple of days, diff oil changed 2 weeks after the service was done.

    GR86 GR86 security

    I haven’t had an offer yet, Ombudsman case is ongoing. I will probably go for it if offered an alarm.
