    Matt’s last lap (the one he aborted at the very end) was ON POINT. Perfect lines, crazy speed through corners with the right amount of rotation. Congrats

    I've known Bon (Ben, whatever) for years and he's always been a great/mad driver, and it's good to see nothing's changed.

    Wonderful video as always, I cannot believe how good everyone says the GR is, hopefully one day I'll get to find out myself.
    I don't understand how you have so few subscribers!

      I’m depressed about it still. We are getting the gr Corolla but it’s almost 400lbs heavier it can never be as good.

    Brilliant! Watching the 200bhp club drive the Yaris says more about the car than all those journos on RUclips put together.

    So what happened at Donington with the smashed up e36? Thought maybe we'd see a video by now.

    @neilbenton1152 2 года назад

    I've had the lowered kit fitted to my GR yaris cp and can confirm it's made a difference as in feeling more sporty to hustle & it's made it look mean as it's lower which they definitely need , Ben's a lovely guy aswell ,I'll probably never sell this car its that good ,

    If Matt says something like "this car is a bit scary..." It would be fake!
    That yaris seems a great car and you confirmed it with these fun laps.
    Good track tool

    The rattly old import Impreza STI sitting on the drive is starting to look a little nervous... I bet this thing doesn't tire you out after an hour of motorway driving.

    Hi Ben, care to share your suspension geometry? This looks so much more tail-happy than the standard car

    Great car, but better if has one more cylinder...

      Why would it be better with a heavier engine?

    • @briangriffith3985
      @briangriffith3985 2 года назад +3

      these are making 500bhp on stock internals. with a good exhaust they sound great too. dont mind the cylinder count

    • @Cernunn0s90
      @Cernunn0s90 Год назад

      Hard disagree. This 3-cylinder has more character than any 4 cylinder I've ever driven.
