New Toyota GR Yaris first drive - best WRC homologation hot hatch? // The Late Brake Show

I positioned the pedal box, throttle and

brake

s so you can heal and tow seemingly with ease and they're actually right, so you're probably going to say yeah, Johnny, this is cool, you know? Reliving the glory days of the group B rally where you built. a strange mutant road car to meet and go racing, but how much does it cost because you know these cars have a history of becoming classics due to their racing pedigree even though this car doesn't have a racing pedigree yet? well it weighs £29,995 in the UK and whilst it's not a limited edition car it is what you would classify as a special order car and if you want to order it with a circuit pack or track pack it costs an extra £3,500, I like to go in the dark with the gr yes or arrows from slipping because I can't see much of the dashboard it's gripped it's gripped it's wonderfully gripped and it's really comfortable despite the fact that yes, it's rigid because of the nature of the car it's not like a It really breaks the spine, which I like and it feels so different than some of its contemporaries and what its contemporaries are.

You know, the Fiesta St is another, playful, fantastically energetic and attractive B-segment car, which is this kind of size. You have to move up the segment. For all the other hardcore vehicles like the McGann RS and the UH Type R Civic, they are all much more expensive and are also much physically larger cars. I'm stuck behind another retired person with a national trust badge on his ford c-max which is a shame because this is an amazing road, at the back you have this black band where you can barely notice the rear window , the spoiler is actually pretty restricted, given how crazy and crazy the whole project is, these butts.

The lights, as I said before, are the same as a normal Yaris, but that's where it all ends. Look below, real exhaust without any unpleasant cover, any pretend extension. It is real. It's a couple of real escapes. Which is good, isn't it? real when it's like that it sounds like a little base model, I say that, you know, lucky students get bought for their 17th birthday, but all of a sudden when you start giving it some beans it just comes to life and really comes to life, we go and there's A lot of people who believe that a car like this gives you more satisfaction in a country like the UK than a bigger, more powerful sports car because it weighs 1280 kilos and three cylinders with a really energy-hungry air-hungry snail attached to it.

It has a lot grip and it feels good and it also feels better than the faster you

drive

it actually yes I just want to spend more time with it unfortunately we don't have it for long because the world is I'm angry right now and I'd like to spend a little more time i would like to

drive

it in the rain i would like to drive it in the mud and that's when i would put it in track mode and i would want to feel how the 5050 really feels when the surface loosens up, i have a feeling that

toyota

has created your own chimney suzuki or honda e and when I say, what I mean by that is a car that instantly generates so much buzz and people want it even though they are not entirely sure if it fits into their lifestyle and if It's particularly useful for them they don't give a damn they still want it and I'm starting to understand that I have it, I've had that with the Honda E and I have that with the Gymnast Tzatziki and I think the Guri Harris will have it Toyota has really woken up and has smelled some of that and gone, it is almost certain that we will not make money from this project, but we will do it to compete successfully on the

best

racing course in the world.

Personally I believe that the rally is a car born of obsession. You have a crazy talented rally Finn and then you have the details. Passion obsessed Mr. Toyota, driver there, and this is his creation, and I have to be honest, I think it will be a classic as soon as it comes out because how far they have come. make this um as faithful as some kind of road rally car even though it doesn't have as big a wing as a cosworth escort and even though it's not as crazy as an rs 200 was, I honestly still think it's what it is.

Up there, you know, so forget what this looks like and forget practicality for a minute. You're buying a car that's rally bread and it's something very special nowadays, it's something very rare nowadays and that's why I really love it. Thank you always. So much for watching the
