what's inflation?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InflationBut basically, £10 in 2 years will be worth 'less' than £10 today, so delaying the big outgoing means it 'costs' less.
Anyway, i like the GR a lot.
I work for a Toyota dealer in hertfordshire, not in sales but the servicing department.
Excuse me if I go over anything that has been said before as I only read the last 2 pages
but the GR Yaris mini guide that Toyota released to us says the car is to be (read as should of been) displayed/run at Goodwood this weekend 
, demos land Oct 2020 and Circuit pack car will be delivered Jan 2021.
They are hand built in the Motomachi factory (the home of A80 Supra) so I guess the delivery time will be slow?
Im happy to try and help with any questions but as I said I'm no salesman!

Been checking in on this thread, shame the Yaris GR has been taken out of rallying next year, does this mean the car won't compete and there won't be the 25k units required?
Also cool to read about a few peoples experiences with the 182 trophy and V6 clio's - I like looking at these on the classifieds, I wanted a 182 for my first car, I don't remember them being outragously expensive 3 years ago but the insurance was killer so I went with an 1.6 Clio GT instead. They're rather expensive now it seems for a good one.
The big appeal of the Yaris though seems to be in the circuit pack though with the LSD's - not sure why people would spec them without this?

Two points here:1) It could be that circuit pack makes the car much stiffer, which wouldn’t be great for most who are not planning to take the car on racetracks
2) If much more ppl order circuit pack, it could be that the regular gr becomes more valuable over time

Simple enough to get softer springs and even dampers fitted, rather more complicated to add the LSDs and possibly software updates.1) It could be that circuit pack makes the car much stiffer, which wouldn’t be great for most who are not planning to take the car on racetracks

Yes, local dealer, I asked the question and was the reply I got after they had a look. I was a little surprised too, quite low.
I didn’t think this was possible! I know we can check what’s in stock and pipeline availability, but not what’s been ordered. I’ll have to check on Monday!
(I know I’ve taken 6 orders, mainly from PH members!)

Mr Ferris, did you manage to find out any concrete information on your return from furlough? We need a little light at the end of this Toyota tunnel.I’ll have to check on Monday!
