Hi all, I have been lucky enough to secure one of the new allocation. I have only seen an Electric Blue in the flesh, and was hoping to find some owners happy to let me see other colours before I place my order. I’m near Reading, but happy to travel 60-90 mins to take a look. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help!
 
As an alternative your local dealer will have swatches for the specific GR86 colours and may have a non EB demo car to look at too.

Mine's electric blue but if Oxford is in range their demo is ignition red and they do have a board with all the colour swatches too

Thanks, I’m booking a test drive at Bracknell. Would still be good to see whole cars if possible 👍
 
I am not far from Reading, close to Wokingham. Pearl White which is really lovely in the sun, happy for you to have a look. Welcome to the GR family 😀

Many thanks, I have a test drive with Bracknell on Sat morning. You don’t happen to know what colour their demonstrator is do you? I might PM you to arrange a suitable time / place to meet?

They had an Electric blue demo in December so assume it's the same car as the demo had to come over from Bracknell. I got mine from Jemca Reading and can recommend their sales manager who I know well if you need a contact.

Congratulations, I’m Chichester, which is a bit outside your area but next to Goodwood should you find yourself down this way. Mine is Grey, which I love as a long term but is a bit reserved compared to some of the others I have seen.

Thanks very much for the help so far guys. I’ve arranged to see a Red, White, and Magnetite at the weekend. Would be great to see a Silver, Black and Saphire blue if there are any around.
 
I'll be driving up / down the a34 tomorrow and will hit Chieveley services at some point AM and PM if you want to see the best colour. 😁

Can confirm the Bracknell car is still blue. I drove it the other week.

Also hello @LGN_83 sounds like you're a neighbour of mine! :)

I'd be up for this for sure, just never get round to actually doing something about it

Me too, I work in Bracknell a few days a week and still not seen another GR86 in the wild so would be fun to see a few together! Mine is Smurf blue though!
