With Toyota GR's recent announcement of the GR Cygnet, oh sorry Yaris, I realised it could have been the AM Cygnet replacement that many of us would have been interested in.

Surely with the Carbon fibre and aluminium panels it could have had a subtle AM treatment too. Add Carbon AM seats and this is a perfect modern shopping trolley.

As I expect this is never going to happen, I'm trying to get the GR one.

That one may be perfect, but it's not exactly OEM standard is it?

Yes I agree that 1 of 1 was perfect but what about the rest of us.

Saw my first AM Cygnet last month.

On the back of a truck on the way to the I.O.M

Learn from mistakes. Don't repeat them.
