or maybe to give room to produce the GT concept car in Motomachi.

I'd still love one here. It's the Yaris but with the space I'd need for the dog. An ideal daily.

And therein lies what I might suggest is reason why gen2 GRY is being held back in UK.

Would seem odd as they’re at least 18 months away from delivering a car.

If this is genuine I'd get one. Would take at least 18mths to start making them though and that's doing left hookers at the same time too.

Treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen?
I genuinely though that rate of supply in UK was down to manufacturers emissions rules. But that they are going to sell a model that carries the same engineering, but is more expensive, that makes more sense.

Quite a bit over I would've thought...

That will be the issue. The closest rival is probably FL5 Type-R which without haggling is just over £51k. Perhaps the Corolla being built here could be lower but I can't see it. They'll want to make as much as they can.

Agree with above about it being more usable than the GRY but my guess is mid 50k.
Still wouldn't trade in my GRY as there will always be one "original first edition".
It would be nice to have both though for when someone needs to be in the back along with the dog in the boot.
