Paint is definitely very thin. I've somehow picked up 3 little clear coat (I think/hope/pray) scratches on the door - looks like someone has leaned against it and a zip/button has caught the paint 💀 Not even 500 miles down yet!

Oh that must have been so frustrating! 😂 I've still not found the exact cause yet, I may just take it to the dealership and let them figure it out at this rate!

I'm glad it's not just me that's had this problem! If the polystyrene space saver is the issue, I might just use a bit of double sided tape to tape it to the base of the car to stop it moving around. As long as it's not mechanical though, I can live with any slight noises, it's just the...

The cat litter definitely reduced the noise right down so it was only going over bigger bumps that caused it rather than every little bump in the road. We're now about 90% sure that the noise is the polystyrene space saver thingy under the boot carpet. Going to take that out in the week and go...

I'm going to test this with something heavy in the boot! I've not had any shopping trips yet so the boots currently empty except for some bags for life. Nipping out to grab cat litter so it's a good time to test the theory. Will report back 😊

So I've had my GR86 since Wednesday and I've started to notice that driving at lower speeds on bumpy roads, over speed bumps, etc. there's a relatively loud noise coming from the rear of the car. It kind of sounds like a knocking/vibrating noise - the only similar noise I can compare it to was...

That's very strange 🤔 has it just happened the once??

Oh dear 😂😂 My calls to 999 aren't logged in my phone so they were definitely calls via the car itself! They went to a Toyota Operative not to the usual 999 despatch contact, my hand was nowhere near the SOS button overhead!

Definitely didn't press the SOS button - I didn't even know it existed! How bizarre, think I'll just keep an eye on it and call the dealership if it happens many more times 😊 were you using android auto or apple carplay? Just wondering whether there's a glitch in that rather than the car.

Thanks! Hopefully the wait won't be too painful! 😊

Seems like the correct thread to ask as it looks like it could be recall related (?) - on my drive home after collecting the GR86 this afternoon, I managed to call 999 twice but not sure how. First time I had just answered a call from my partner, it put him on hold and dialled 999 instead...

Collected my car today 🥰 in love!!

Thank you! Hope the wait isn't too painful for you 😊

I'm so terrible with dates! I think it was 9th May it arrived in the UK, it got to the dealer Friday 19th but as my car hadn't yet sold I couldn't arrange to collect the new one. So not a long process from docking to dealer! 😊

GT86 sold 💔 but deposit paid for the GR86 and hoping to collect on Wednesday next week, I've opted for the spoiler to be fitted as well - so excited!

Yep, p/x for me was £1700 less than Motorway, then the Toyota Buy Online person very kindly referred the p/x value internally and the gap closed to £1000. I have decided to accept the sale with Motorway as I'm also getting cash back from the sale to save towards a house deposit, so every penny...

In case anyone is interested, the person I've been in contact with at Toyota Buy Online was able to give me my registration number even though the car hasn't been registered yet. If your car is in the UK but not registered/at the dealers, you can ask for the details (granted, you can't use it...

How long did you guys find the Toyota/BCA part exchange appraisal took to come back? I've listed on Motorway as well so would be good to have the P/X value so I can make a proper decision 😊

Thanks guys! I'm hoping Toyota will be decent as I currently own a GT86. I'll get some quotes elsewhere as well though 😊 been told the ETA for arriving at the dealership is towards the end of May so I need to start having a look.

Thanks guys, that's good to know! Shan't bother looking at other options just yet then! 😊
