Cheers Paul, just covered 1st 1000 miles in a couple of weeks (design spec) and I'm so impressed with the car, a lot quicker than I expected, and showing 64.9 mpg since I zeroed trip. Motorway 600 miles town/ urban 400 ....ish.
I use mine for everything, shopping,it’s also the car I use for my business, use it for track days, and next week I’m doing a 3000 mile road trip in her All the models are very capable cars, design is the most comfortable, excel the best equipped, the GR is the special one that just puts a smile on your face every time you drive it, it’s also the best handling of the models
Hi Paul, im loving my new yaris gr sport, great economy & gadgets....but i have A) my You tube music keeps cutting off thru bluetooth & yes i have disconnected , factory reset it but it only works with wired connection thru android auto & B) why isnt their little lights on the electric window/door lock switch..difficult to see at night.
Hi Paul, Glad you've mentioned having the car Ceramic coated. Can you do a video on that. Did you do it yourself ? If so which brand. Did you get it done by a garage. If so how much did it cost ? Thanks again for another great video 😎👍
I asked Toyota dealer to do it for me before I collected the car, better to do before taking it out on our horrendous roads Cost I’m sorry I can’t remember and can’t find my order form at the moment
Hi Paul, I've just seen a video on RUclips about the increase in vehicle thefts in south Wales. Back in the day, I always installed a kill switch in an obscure place in the car. Have you got any ideas you can do to these new vehicles to make them impossible to steal 🤔 Jim
the problem is , if they want it what ever you do they will just take it , only thing you can take precautions with is your smart key , keep it as far away from the car as possible , don,t leave it by the doors or windows at home , take the key upstairs at night and put it into faraday bag or a signal blocking pouch , they are available on ebay or amazon
It’s got a labyrinth seal built into the box, so long as you don’t use high pressure water it’s okay, you will be surprised how much moisture gets under a bonnet on a wet day and all connectors are weather pack
Literally a shame that you picked up the 116hp versione instead of the 130hp that came out this year. That is a true warm hatch. Yours lacks of some hp and torque to be defined that.
I’ve driven both so-called power outputs, 116 and 130 , I’ve Time slips from data logs and the so called 116 is faster than Toyota says and 0/60 times are an easy 1 to 1.25 seconds quicker than any of t he other Yaris models, and having driven a 2024 demo the other week I could not tell any difference Between it and my current GRS First drive 2024 Toyota Yaris GR Sport ruclips.net/video/XV6rK81sFVU/видео.html

You would need to install something called a ‘ghost alarm. Additionally a tracker that can switch the vehicle off remotely via app.
I notice on one of your videos you jet wash your car engine with out covering the fuse box is it water proof

Mine was done by Toyota before I collected the car, I can’t find my order sheet anywhere, the price was on the order sheet
