    Hi from soon to be GT86 owner.

    Cheers Lauren. I'll run it up there at some point and mention it. It does sound metallic.

    Hi from soon to be GT86 owner.

    One little niggle I've got is I can hear a clicking noise from the back. Anyone had this? I'm thinking it's the polystyrene tool holders in the boot.

    Hi from soon to be GT86 owner.

    Well..... The boot is worse! [emoji23] The exterior looks of the car are better but then a coupe always looks better than a family car. Build quality is far better. Interior design is probably better in the civic but the whole thing the 86 is better place to be. Not had chance to test the handling to the limits I had done with the civic but first impressions say it's very very capable. A little test run I do I could hit 73mph before I had to brake for a corner. I did it last night and I got to 70 in the 86 and there was more left. And that was against my modded civic. Fun factor. You can't beat rear wheel drive with a hot hatch. Simple. Slides at 15mph [emoji122] Economy and running costs. Cheaper than the civic. Practicality. Civic obviously. Better than the civic. Yeah definitely. The feeling you get from just sitting in it is far better. I think I will be keeping it for a long time. [emoji122]

    Yep but too far for you. I'm getting it from Mansfield Toyota. It was only on Autotrader for an evening. I called up the next morning and snapped it up. [emoji1]

    +1 Fantastic road tyre. They go off on track due to the heat towards the end of a 20 min session.

    Why bother?

    I'm hoping this is the case LOL.

    My 86

    Yep looks great to me until I get to the vents. But if you are happy then that's all that matters. Love the front lip [emoji106]

    Just bought mate. Pick it up on the 15th. I don't know about the GT86 but on my Type R Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 where awesome. Especially in the wet.

    Hi from soon to be GT86 owner.

    Yeah will do. Was impressed with the speed. I've got a Summit front strut brace on the way too. I'm going to spray the stopper and the brace mounts black first before fitting.

    New Cosworth Supercharger.

    I don't know if I'm miss reading it but to get the full +80bhp it says you have to have the exhaust manifold too which is another £1500!

    What a lovely price of engineering! It looks OEM unlike most of the other FI systems I've seen. The one to have for me.
