My pair

They are so polar opposite it's really hard to compare! When the sun is out and I'm going out for an early morning blast, then I'd probably pick the GR86 every time. I'm only 1000 miles in so just starting to open the engine up, but somehow it just feels the more special place to be.

That said, this winter I have definitely not felt hard done by whenever I've decided to take the Yaris out instead. It's still redicuoulsy fun but in a totally different way. The grip, torque, ability to mash the throttle at any point in a corner, even the angry pug like growl make me feel very fortunate to own both, and it means I have a properly special drivers car to go out in whatever the time of year.

I only test drove the Yaris as the 86 was taking so long to arrive.... now I'm not sure how I'd replace either!
 
Here are a few of mine, the E61 M5 is currently having a manual conversion done along with rod bearings and a few other upgrades.

The RS133 Twingo has been family owned from new running the Ktec 163 kit and the GR I picked up in April with 800 miles on the clock and 6 months old.
