  1. I may have left the fold mate but I’ll always have a big soft spot for F cars, also it won’t change our “F”riendship even though I can’t let the tax thing go lol Thank you, love to you and Leanne and the family. Would love to meet up later this year too, just give me a shout.
  2. It’s an extremely capable car mate, with regards to the exhaust the Toyota engineers designed it to be quieter due to vibrations coming through the cabin with a sportier exhaust due to the way the car is constructed (homologated rally car made for the road, aluminium bonnet, doors and boot plus carbon roof etc tend to vibrate ).There’s been lots of complaints from people with aftermarket systems with regards to this. Induction wise, Eventuri do a nice intake but for £1200 and 6 bhp I think I’ll stick with the plumbed in noise. I know it’s artificial but it sounds like a mini RS3 which I love, as I get older I like the noise in the cabin but not trying too hard outside. They are pricey but it’s the best car purchase I’ve ever made. Loving the GRMN, I’ll bet it sounds like amazing!
  3. Thank you very much! If the wife likes the look of it your on to a winner.
  4. Thank you and I’ll bet that was some experience. Funnily reviewers have compared the GR to the Integrale. I’m 48 and I’ve had 7 Subaru Imprezas in my younger years including a P1, loved rally cars due to Colin McRae. The GR feels like a back to basics all out fun drivers car that just rewards you the more you push it.
  5. Hi all, thought I’d just put a post up about letting my F go, purchased an immaculate 2 owner 2010 MY11 USB IS-F last year. (I’d owned a grey 2008 IS-F for 5 years previously too) Took it on track at Donington and it was great fun, but I soon realised to get it to a point I could really enjoy it on track I’d have to spend some serious money, also if I’m honest it was just too nice to track. So sold it about 2 months ago to a car dealer in Scotland for what I paid for it a year before. Must admit I didn’t gel with it like I did my 08. Even with the lsd, updates and fitting a H&S exhaust I just didn’t feel the love for it like I did my grey one which is a shame. Anyway I went for a GR Yaris with circuit pack. I didn’t even test drive it, just went with the hope the hype was real. Oh my good the hype was real and then some, what Toyota have created is absolutely phenomenal! You cannot believe it’s a 1.6 3 cylinder turbo, it’s an absolute weapon, the mid range shove and the way it catapults you down a straight to the next bend is mind blowing, the manual 6 speed is a delight too. A roads wet or dry is just ballistic and on the motorway it’s just effortless (I don’t care about mpg but 35-40 when constantly tickling it and 28 when ringing it’s neck) and such an engaging drivers car. It makes you smile like a Cheshire Cat every time you drive it and you are itching to keep driving it which I haven’t felt with a car for such a long time and i’m 48. I cannot wait to track it and also I’ve got a Nurburgring trip booked next year. So as you can see I’m very happy with my purchase and if you think I’m just new car drunk, go and drive one.
  6. These came off my 2008 IS-F when my Hayward and Scott got fitted. Good to have as spares and will clean up nicely. £175 collected. I can post but at your cost. Located in Stafford.
  7. Cheers mate, to be honest you and Ryo in that underground car park made sure I’d be getting one 😉
  8. Cheers mate. I don’t think i will as I’m pretty sure it won’t pass, it’s louder than the catback I had for sure, but I may get away with it at Anglesey. Good move getting yours tested, it’s a lot of money to waste to get black flagged. You’ll have to tell me how you get on too.
  9. Really liking this mate and fair play to you fitting it with one arm.
