Mine is on a personal plate and the only other I've seen is the demo which was locally registered . . .

Managed a few hours on track at Donington and come away in one piece. A result in my book.
Car was faultless as you'd expect - even in the hands of my inexperienced OH !

Really need to get it on track soon. All my local ones are either limited dates or sell out quickly. I'd like to try Anglesey
How come there are so many cars in shot on the bottom photo?!

Had my oil pan removed and RTV residue cleaned on warranty. All due to fact that I've found RTV sticked to oil dipstick at around 100 km milage mark . Obviously I've had to push it through Toyota Poland because dealership service manager told me that the only situation when they'll pull my oilpan on warranty is when the engine "starts to give symptoms of internal problem". In the end I'm satisfied by the outcome and I can finally enjoy my car after all

I'd say I got it even at factory
Here's my dipstick during first oli level check which I did at exactly at 116 km (72 miles). Blimey.I'd say I got it even at factory
So they cleared the crap out of the tray, but can't more turn up later?

The car had 1850 km of milage at the moment I got the service done. I did normal break in (just like I did with my BRZ and GR Yaris before) and drove it casually through last month knowing that oil pickup might be clogged. In the end the pickup screen wasn't bad at all but there was a lot of residue rtv where the oil pan mates with engine block (this could potentially got loose after time). Since dipstick is quite close to the edge of the pan I suppose it got contaminated by getting in contact with excess rtv inside the pan. Can more turn up later - honestly who knows ? I'll be removing the pan anyway later on and getting baffle installed since this car will see some track time in it's near future. Here's the pic after removing the oil pan.

Because it was really busy with loads of red flags meaning everyone dived out of the pits together.

Are they replacing the stock wheels?
Remark burnt single wall now fitted. What a difference this makes. Makes it sound as it should from stock. If anything it’s possibly a bit too loud? If it was maybe 25% quieter I think it would be perfect for me.
Cold start is loud as commented by the garage who fit it. A colleague didn’t notice much when he brought it in to put on the ramp. He certainly did when he started it to back it out!
Also added a bit of fake carbon on various places such as fuel cover, door sills, the plastic side of the dash and the water jets at the front .. dunno if it’ll stay on but makes it look a bit different.

Yeh not sure.. likely will come off at some point but it looks better in real than on pics.I’ll probs swap it for the premium vinyl strips but I refuse to pay for delivery for same price. Surely someone can design in uk, or I might just give it a go myself. As long as each side is symmetrical , no one would know it’s a DIY job.
