Quick question for anyone in the know if you don't mind.
I've seen a couple of GT86 Heritage books on eBay. These have 86 pages (!) of info about past inspirational cars.
I want to buy this for my wife but was curious as to whether it comes with the car?
Cheers,
Simon
No, sadly they don't come with a heritage book.I've seen a couple of GT86 Heritage books on eBay. These have 86 pages (!) of info about past inspirational cars.

Had some good news. Her car could be here late June for an early July delivery.
Also, we're booked on the Silverstone tuition / experience day on 2nd August.
Reference the book, I heard about it so sought it out on eBay. It's 86 pages long and very informative.
I'm used to Italian cars but the designer of the 86 could teach Milan a thing or two about passion & soul

So you have the car now right? Pictures? Plans of changing anything on it?
Yes, she has the car. Still running in abd only up to 300 miles but she's loving it so far.I've had a couple of drives and can understand why they review so well.
Other than the installation of a Road Angel, logo valve caps and a possible reversing camera add on, DAB, no plans to change anything.
Coming from a V6 Alfa, it doesn't feel slow either, despite keeping it below 4k rpm.
It feels fantastic on the road too. Very light, very pointy with excellent controls.
Hater's will still hate no doubt.

Bubble burst. 16 days into ownership & just 423 miles, my wife is stranded in the car
Brake, ABS & slip indicator warning lights when reversing out of a space.
Toyota assistance don't know what the fault code (546b) is so car needs recovery.
Not impressed, especially after years of Alfa & Fiat motoring. Jap reliability my arse!
