🤔 This reminds me about the only benefit of not having an alarm on this car - the battery doesn't run down after a month's standing. 🤗

Cheers. Sounds a reasonable compromise.

Just for information, what's the approx cost of (1) MetaTrak and (2) professional fitting?

👍 Wise words.

Think it was probably cost-cutting. They're in a difficult position now because they've already forked out a few £500 payments and can't complain if others want similar compensation (and 1500 x £500 is £750k!). I also sent off an email over Christmas. As mentioned in an earlier posting, I would...

I use this and it's quite effective on the discs, reapplied every month or so. It goes a long way as only 5% concentration needed.

The other security issue with this car is that it allows you to lock up with the boot in the down position, but not closed. Even my old 56 plate Yaris blares out a warning if you attempt this. Both cars allow locking with the windows open. You'd think that these kind of things would be pretty...

😀 They look good. I like your wheel set-up too, esp the higher tyre side, reducing the risk of kerb scuffs. 👍

🤔 Hardly classy or sporty, but I think I'll stick with my 40-year-old scratch-faced Seiko. 😄

Same here. The only bit of tech I'd find useful would be kerb-proximity sensors. 😂

Perhaps you can share the email address you used so that all interested can write to the same contact point. My car was a cash purchase with GT86 trade-in directly through Toyota UK rather than a dealer.

Presumably, this would be free of charge - so could other owners on here go to dealers and ask for a similar fitting, or would we have to complain to the Ombudsman first of all I wonder? Thoughts welcome.

They should have nipped up the M4 to Fish Bros of Swindon. They're behind the 'Toyota Direct Parts' web site and must have shelves of them as they readily sell their oil & oil/air/cabin package for £87 delivered with no problem.

Surely this is the watch for some of the dealerships we've heard about on here? 🤔 🤭 😂

Mine had its first service a fortnight ago and I did mark the filter beforehand because of the rumoured shortage. I worried unnecessarily as I collected it with a new genuine filter in place. I think the risk of reuse and charging for new is too great for garages that have a Toyota franchise.

Looks good. If the original grill isn't too badly damaged, it could be fitted straight on top - and no £200 for removing the bumper. 😀

I've had the car for 12 months now and this is news to me! No idea they were fitted. 👍 Thanks for pointing this out. When/how are they activated?

Headlight washer jets?

😲 200 quid to take off the front bumper and replace a bit of plastic fencing?? 🫣

Wow! Sounds great - but will it have tougher paint and a more resilient interior I wonder?
