    GR86 15,000miles at 1 years old !

    In case not clear, the sensors themselves and fitting all for free, on those first batch vehicles, if requested at or soon after delivery. They were mentioned in initial marketing, but not actually fitted in export vehicles to UK. So Toyota honoured that, which was great ...

    GR86 15,000miles at 1 years old !

    Yes indeed I got fitted for free, after others did that on the initial set of deliveries. I did the same, and very glad I did given experience in dark grimey winter, when camera often gets dirty and not alway possible to get out and wipe it before parking during a journey ! The audible pinging...

    GR86 15,000miles at 1 years old !

    Guys, I bought this standard black manual GR86, after previously owning a basic 2.0 mx5 nd. The latter was good fun, but too much of a compromise and felt gutless. Ordering the GR86 became even more exciting when I started dating a Japanese girl, a few months after my order went in. So it was...

    GR86 Parking Sensors?

    I collected my black gr86 in June, and the dealer fitted rear sensors for free as per first batches ... really don't notice them I have to say, and I'd recommend it. In rain, dirty weather coming up, sensors plus the camera makes things easy when parking. Btw - not a problem on the front, as...

    GR86 GR86 Delivery Tracking and Collection thread

    #189 collected (10.54am order) in Milton Keynes ... process reasonably seamless for me from start to finish. I'll get the rear sensors fitted in July after term ends, and before we go to Japan for a month ! Collie-kun

    GR86 GR86 Delivery Tracking and Collection thread

    I asked them today when to expect it, and they said around 9th June at dealer. It seems a long time ... but perhaps they don't know so exactly and hence just sandbag the time estimate.

    GR86 GR86 Delivery Tracking and Collection thread

    My order also on morning carina, docking later today ... I switched my delivery dealer to Steven Eagell in milton keynes, given my girlfriend is there. Hoping it'll be there in couple of weeks, given people said it usually takes 2 weeks.

    GR86 The 11 o'clock Club

    My 10.54pm order, like 521williams being crystal black, is still in processing, so exact order time probably doesn't reflect exactly when orders go in to the system ... but things definitely moving.

    GR86 GR86 Delivery Tracking and Collection thread

    I asked online team for the latest on my 10.54 order and was told "sometime in June, plus or minus" ... a few months back, they'd said "second half of year"

    GR86 The 11 o'clock Club

    From having seen the traffic over past 9 months, changing colour before it's made, makes no difference ... also, the variability of feedback from the "online team" to individuals, shows they are just administrating the process and not close enough to manufacturing to have any useful insight of...

    GR86 New Builds Starting

    Ps. I asked on latest last week on my 10.54am order and was told "2nd half of this year". But they said they've really no idea when, until it's "in build". As others said, if cancellations happen it can come forward ...

    GR86 New Builds Starting

    Japanese factories shutdown for maintenance, etc, around New Year, and also a week in summer ... that's what my Japanese girlfriend told me (she works for Nissan). So maybe that's case for Subaru also.

    GR86 GR86 Delivery Tracking and Collection thread

    Just in case useful to anyone, I sold my 2.0L mx5-nd a while back using webuyanycar.com for 5k less than I paid for it from new. I'd had it for 4.5 years. And the cash was in my account within 2hrs. Flawless service, given I decided to sell it earlier that same day. Unbelievable price and...

    GR86 The GR86 “The Orders / Owners List / GR86 Register”

    For the list. I ordered a MT in crystal black at 10.54am on 20th April ... the call from the online team suggested Q3-2023 delivery. In Processing.
