Same! Milton Keynes' roundabouts were a lot of fun tonight.

Was that online or through a dealer? Not seeing any GR86 stuff listed on https://toyotadirectparts.co.uk/ yet.

This was through Steven Eagell's parts department.

Mine just arrived. Very elaborate packaging. An instruction manual for how to "install" them too. Shame I can't read Mandarin.

The then metal hoop you use to secure it all is a bit fiddly. Swearing may have been involved here.

True. However, it allowed me an opportunity to indulge in one of life's great pleasures - conducting a full audit and tidy up of my key ring.





Why are you all looking at me like that?

Fitted a child seat... took longer than I've actually spent driving the car since collecting.

What I did today in my GR86 was go on a prolonged drive to find and purchase a copy of this month's EVO magazine, cos the (prize-winning no less!) letter of the month was crafted by an extremely well respected, intelligent and handsome Zoo Company member...

Nice! I read that and wondered if it was someone from here. Thought a very well written letter.

Very kind sir!

(I've only ever written two letters to car mags - the other one was about 12-13 years ago, when I had my 911 - I wrote to Total 911 magazine and got letter of the month and a watch out of them too! Maybe I should write to car mags more often...)

Fitted my new Likewise shifter, epic quality and shifts feel so much smoother with the extra leverage.

 

[Dal3D]

Crikey sir, that's a big one.

 

[James-UK]

Today... I did a thing. (or more accurately... paid someone to do a thing)
Wrapped roof and fin - gloss black. Tinted rear window 15% and sides 5% - Also... Massive inspiration for green wrap the whole car in the next year or so...

Drive to Portsmouth from Kidlington.

The car is unexpectedly quiet and will fit new catback next week.
