Yes, Toyota released the MR2, Corolla GT, and the first Supra.

Great times to have been a Toyota fan.

But on the other hand my blue Celica GT was great, and my red one was awful. So no red.

Good review of the GR Yaris - on a smaller scale...

He does a really good job of both the build and review.

Got bored, booked a test drive, got an email saying they aren't doing any! If Tesla can why can't they (for the entire range of cars)?

He is quite a good presenter isn't he?

All things considered, I don't think now is the best time to be doing test drives, more so when it's on a whim.

No dealership should be doing test drives. It also falls under non essential travel.

Anyone got a copy of Clarkson’s review? I’d really like to read it without having to input my bank details to get a 30 day free trial.

It’s really not that special. If you have apple news+ it’s on there.

Thank you!

not sure if they're taking factory orders, but I put a deposit down on a 'cancelled' order today -- may ETA.

Not sure if that's just salesman tactics....

May of which year?

this may...

It’s quite funny in places:
‘The RAC Rally used to be Britain’s biggest spectator event, now you get more people in the bedroom of someone with a temperature and a cough’.

Good old Jezza.

I don’t understand why Toyota would give him one now to review, when they’ve sold out?

Which dealer was it? That may irk quite a few people who have been waiting months already and still aren't due to get theirs well past May.

[isleofthorns]

probably best not to drop names, but as said, it was just one of those things - dealer had a drop out and I was enquiring at the same time.

tbh, I wasn't aware supply was this tight / waiting lists so long, as I've only recently started to look at getting one of these cars.

Guy with the blue wrapped GRY from yesterday, waxoyl'ing and fitting some beefed up anti roll bars and springs.

Only in Polish, but some might find it interesting... and the music annoying...

Snagged a canceled order yesterday, Circuit pack for November delivery. Dealer told me new orders are delivering May '22.

Thoughts on rally wheels? Would probably go for a gold set for my black GR as never been a fan of black on black.

[MiseryStreak]

I quite like the latest trend of gold/bronze wheels. I’m not sure gold would look great on the OZ rally wheels though. I think they have to be white.

Quite a few people getting cancelled orders. My Toyota dealer said this doesn’t happen, when an order is cancelled the queue gets shorter by one! It doesn’t really seem fair that you can phone up today and get an order for before the last ones are being delivered?

Not your fault of course.
