Fair enough... then I would recommend Somerset county Cars - becuase they do seem to know at least where the OBD2 port is... :ROFLMAO: @Alistair31 Good colour choice btw!! :love:

I just had the first service, and I asked the Tech to disable the speaker in the ECU. Not problem, and was done free of charge. Car is much more comfortable cruising on the motorway without the dull drone from the speaker! And you can actually hear the engine now! I would recommend you do...

I have a new Subaru Crosstrek which has all the tech missing in the manual 86. The tech works great in the Crosstrek but I think would detract from the driving experience in an 86. So I vote No - the manual 86 is perfect as it is!

Previous similar cars : manual BMW M3 Coupe 4.0 V8. I think the 86 is almost as much fun at much slower speeds and feels safer…. Before the M3, I had a manual Mitsu FTO GP version R 2.0 V6. This was a great car, but FWD which is why the 86 wins hands down! Out of all of these cars, I think...

I know what you mean. I’m sitting at Toyota main dealer waiting for my first service to complete after 2k miles last year. I do feel that prices will steadily go up after 2024 and new deliveries stop. I just picked up a new Subaru Crosstrek as my daily driver and the 86 has pride of place on...

Yep - and allowing for track day crashes and people who can’t drive RWD in the wet… 😉 might be a few less in 2025!

Great to know! I think there are only about 5 GR’s in the South West, so will be a rare sight! I’m in the Exeter area, but do pop down to Dartmoor for a drive every now and again! The GR isn’t my daily driver though, so only comes out at the weekend!

Still trying to get to the magic 1000 miles on the Odo… so took the Grrrr out for a spin through the windies on Dartmoor! Beautiful weather and perfect roads for some slow speed fun! And what a backdrop!!!

So, does this count as the first 86 meet-up? 🤣

Just had my 86 detailed and ceramic coated. I thought I’d share the results! 🥳

Getting boring now, I know, but another collection made! #1 on the list! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

#1 finally got all my paperwork sorted! Collecting Car from Somerset County Cars on 19th January and booked in for unwrapping and full detail + ceramic coating on 20th January. 🥳

Sorta - I've completed all the finance stuff and just waiting for registration and a pick-up date... Hopefully next week.

Just received at email from Toyota asking my to full out a form for an Insurance Quote from Toyota Insurance - which is the way you get the 3-day free drive-home insurance... I have no points or convictions, have a private driveway to store, and only use for week/pleasure driving (6k per...

Sorry - been AWOL for a while… moving house takes up soooo much time!

I also see the plates "BRZ xxx" are availble... Would that be too ironic to use on a GR86? ;) :LOL:

Quick update from me - my car arrived in Derby over a month ago. I sent an email to Toyota Onlione - and they were surpriused by the fact it was in the UK. Apparently, Derby is the landing point for all Toyota cars. Here, they do final pre-delivery checks before final transport to the...
