My GRY has done about 30k miles, and the discs are getting close to needing to be replaced. For purely road use, are there alternatives to the Toyota ones - possibly less expensive but as good (if not better). Again, just for road use. Any advice?

He likes his cars, and good to hear he has a GRY!

Parked up in the car park of a nice pub in Rutland (Finch's Arms - nice place, good food, lovely location). I'm parked up next to a Porsche Taycan, opposite a convertible Bentley, and a Ferrari (of some description) - lots of very nice cars. I walk into the pub, and a young lad (must be early...

Is there a good way to remove the flap and plastic surround from the 12v socket? One that doesn't involve removing loads of things to then remove the socket, or involves breaking the plastic?

Thought we already had one of these threads but couldn't see one. Some posts about roundabout-etiquette on another thread made me think we probably should have a thread dedicated to this, and it was a good excuse for the thread title... What annoys you when you're driving?

I'm sure you've heard all about ChatGPT and Open AI, and how it can respond to questions in 'natural language'. Bing is going to introduce it into it's web search, which is a massive step forward in the search engine area and Google will be responding in kind I'm sure. Anway, you can have some...

Mostly about getting it PPFd. Obviously still loves the car.

That's from Autocar, when they did the full road test of the GRY back in March 2021. Looks like they got the estimate of the residual value slightly off. I know car prices have gone up in that period, but I also think the GRY is holding its value strongly. Mine's a Convenience Pack, so...

So, there is the option of a phone holder, or sitting the phone on the tray under the screen, or some even pop it into the glove box. I've gone for another option. I had the phone sat on the tray under the screen, and even with a sticky mat there, the phone could move around a bit...

I'm sure plenty on here watch Top Gear - so a thread to discuss it makes sense I think. Some good car-related content, humourous light entertainment, and I like the current trio who present the show. As long as you don't expect too much serious car content, there are far worse ways to spend an...

MOVED FROM THE OTHER THREAD TO KEEP THAT CLEAR OF THIS DISCUSSION Hit a pot hole driving home at 3am, and sliced the front offside tyre open. Needed to call out a 24/7 mobile tyre service to put on a budget tyre so I could get home 🙈 Going to move that to the rear while I either get a single...

Took my car in for the 12k miles service, and the tread across the tyres has worn evenly. But they did say that the inside edge of the fronts is scrubbing. They offered to replace the tyres, but I told them no, and I'll change them when I need to. What they didn't offer, was to rotate the...

My car alarm went off today. Didn't know it was my car, as hadn't heard the alarm before - but had to be mine or a neighbours as it was so loud/close. Went out, and the car is unmolested. Opened the car up to have a look around and see if anything inside could have triggered the alarm (moths...

Anyone has any experience with mesh that you install into your lawn so it can be used for parking or manoeuvring, without rutting or damaging it? Something like this: https://www.ultimate-one.co.uk/grassprotecta-lite-grass-protection-mesh-10mm-thick-1mx10m-p-872
