Whisky making must be profitable then :)

What you go for spec wise and when’s it due ?

Circuit pack is a no brainer, especially for resale value

Went and had a look at the one at my local dealer and it’s much nicer in the flesh.

Can’t see past my RS6 just now.
No test drive otherwise it may have been a different outcome 😂

Will wait and see if they bring out a more track focused version soon, that could be the one to get I think.

Shirley the RRP will go up for this soon, crazy popular! I guess 5 year warranty and low rate finance helps a bit.....

Nah, they will just build loads of them. It's a Toyota not a Porsche.

Just took the Aygo to the Toyota dealer in Elgin for it's first service and they have orders for eight GRs.
I think the salesman said they won't be getting any until June.

Ali and I both ordered from Perth. They offered the best deal for two. Elgin never got back to me, Helensburgh were good to talk to but Perth had the best deal.

I'd have one, fantastic little thing! - styling could have been a bit better, but at least it's not a dogs dinner like the Type R

Saw my first one of these today heading out of Aberdeen on the Westhills road.
Looked good on only a quick glance.
