GR86 GR86 Delivery Tracking and Collection thread

So after being told on Monday that Online had no idea when my GR86 would be delivered (aside from maybe towards end of the month), I had an email from them today asking if it was okay to re run my finance application since more than 90 days had elapsed.

I then opened the MyT app and it is showing as my car has been delivered to my dealer! 😮

Wonder if it is actually there or if its another one of these phantom cars 😂 will be taking a drive over later to have a looksie!

Thanks for the heads up, made me check the MyT app as well, and mine is now the same! Feel's like it's getting close to getting it now!
 
Another day of app checking, email checking and hoping for a phone call. Looks like one delivered to the Manchester area though so maybe there's hope for us forgotten northerners.
 
Same, another day of app checking. Since I phoned for the link to part ex I've heard nothing and not had a price back. May phone in a bit as I'm feeling left out

Are you getting them to remove the stickers and wash the car?

I'm tempted to ask them to do that, as the weather is too harsh for detailing outside, and I'm not feeling a 100% right now. I want to make sure the car is in a good shape when picking it up, in case any issues need rectifying.

They removed the stickers and washed it for me, all good.
 
Just cancelled my slot at the detailers for Monday, there is a deposit I won’t be getting back 😡

Got to say I’m furious at this point the fact I have been told two firm dates it was turning up just this month (not to mention the dates throughout the year) and yet I still don’t have a car is getting the better of me here. Buy online who have been very nice all the way through are becoming a nightmare with no actual reasons being given for the delays when they managed to get the test drive cars out with no issues as well as getting a car to Scotland and NI on time (should be no issue with logistics to the north then🤷🏼‍♂️)

I've just been asked to pay... twice. Does that mean anything or has it been decided that the transporter loader is playing roulette and a random order number gets picked for each one.

Also received 2 emails for payment yesterday (duplicate). And the online guy asked me to mail him once paid, but I see there is a button on the website / portal to let them know.
 
This is why I couldn't book in with a detailer is there's no firm dates and he's booked out for months. Gonna be a nightmare cleaning in this cold. Once in garage it will be better with heaters but still not ideal and a risk when fitting the wing too. I'll have to use my heated air dryer to warm the area first.
 
Was told mine should have been on the transporter yesterday, but doesn’t look like that happened!

I feel you on that one. I have £1,000 deposit down with the PPF company and after all of the “first batch, before Christmas” emails, I had to book in as they’re stacked with jobs at the minute.
If I end up losing that deposit, Toyota will have a lot to answer to!
 
We're talking about 50 cars here. How hard can it be for the team in charge of logistics to give a list to Online Retail of when each car will be definitely be delivered? They must plan transporter trips in advance? Online Retail saying they have no idea why cars haven't been delivered when they should or when they will be is incomprehensible.

Agree. Should be able to get 10 cars on one transporter. They must have someone onsite to sort out which vehicles need to go on first.

If organised they could smash 50 in a week easily
 
DPD (not the best courier mind you) can manage where every little parcel of theirs is but Toyota can’t do it for their cars that cost £30k+
They need some catching up to do in terms of transparency
People would be more tolerant if they were updated regularly and accurately with genuine reasons for delays I think.
 
I would hazard a guess at it being to do with them not wanting to just cart 86s up and down the country, but rather slot them into to their predetermined delivery schedule.

For example, if the only car coming to Cardiff is my 86, why send a transporter just for that? Would be better off waiting for either Cardiff to need some Yaris and Corollas delivered or maybe Bristol/Swansea to need some cars too.

I was just discussing this with one of the other owners, there are 5 of us (that I know of, I'm sure the dealer told me they had like 12 orders) that ordered cars to be delivered at the same dealer, surely it would have made sense to stick them all on one transporter and be done with it.

Then we could have collected them on the same day and had a cool mini meet....
 
They got the demos out fairly quickly, although my dealer claimed theirs didn't turn up until a week later than everyone else. Given Cardiff have a few, me in Swansea and one down West it would've made sense to send them all the same time, yet they didn't.

That would make sense! I only know of 3 or 4 coming to this part of the world, and one has been delivered to dealer (in Tenby) but the Cardiff and Swansea cars are nowhere to be seen. Baffling.
