New owner of a GR86, Surrey

[Claybasher]

Just picked up the car yesterday, so far so good... clutch pedal is a bit tricky but I hope to get used to it (or maybe there is a fix!?)

Brief Car History:

- BMW 335
- BMW 325
- TVR Chimaera
- Caterham 7
- Lotus Elise
- Ford Mustang V8
- Subaru Impreza
- Subaru Legacy
- Mazda MX5

assorted other shopping trolleys

Looking forward to some rear wheel drive, manual goodness, thinking about a Harrop supercharger maybe

Welcome!

The clutch pedal can be most fixed with swapping with a softer assist spring! I have a GKTech one installed

Welcome to the Zoo!

That's an impressive car history.

There are options to sort the clutch feel out, discussed at length on here. If you run a search you can find everything you need.

Thanks Folks... Car history sounds quite good but I am quite old (wrong side of 50) and I have been chopping and changing for years

I will look up the clutch spring thing, thanks!

What colour spec?

What colour spec?

Mine is smurf blue, with an OEM black ducktail on the back, it's a manual and otherwise standard. I really dont think photos do the car justice, which my wife has said too... In the flesh, it really is a very pretty car. Possibly the nicest looking car I've owned, IMHO.
