I've just bought a 2013 (62 plate) gt86. absolutely LOVE it. its had all the recalls done and the dealer, put discs, pads and tire's on all 4 corners, refurbed the alloys and touched up the paint work for free and its just covered 70k miles. Nothing to note as of yet but i have a 6 month warranty and just want to know what to look out for so I don't have any unexpected bills and that i have the opportunity to give the car back with in 14 days of purchasing it and don't want a lemon

Anything appreciated!

Check your rear view mirror when coming out of roundabouts to make sure you are not causing a long tailback due to the lack of errr, performance.

Also look out for idiots who have never driven one slagging it off ffor being slow and having a frustrating power delivery.

It’ll be interesting to see what the GR86 costs when it arrives. £50k maybe judging by how much the new Yaris is!

Sounds like you did well out of the dealer. I hope you asked for the cheapest budget tyres to be fitted so you can have some more sideways fun?!
