OV9

I have no need for the 2 cars I already have, in fact I am doing more miles walking and cycling than in the car.

And yet, I really really really want one of these. Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere, but I think its rare that anything like this will be made again.

I sat in one today outside the dealer, looks good in the flesh and the interior is premium (for a jap hatchback). I’m not able to test drive one until lock down restrictions lift which could be weeks/months. The current factory lead times are 8/9 months. I have leased cars before without a test drive, but never purchased one.

Would love one. Can't see you losing much money on one?

Good point, let me add that to the man maths calculator.

I’m stupid enough to have it booked into litchfield before its run in, which wont be cheap.

I wouldn't, just enjoy it.

In a complete reversal of normal opinion (because I hate dark green cars in general), I think this Yaris looks fantastic in a Oak Green:

I saw that one on Twitter a couple of days ago. I don’t hate dark green but it wouldn’t be a natural choice - this (and the Lotus Carlton) wears it superbly. May be helped by the fact that it looks like glass. and also the bronze wheels. I still don’t understand why bronze isn’t a more popular finish.

Certainly does. Love that.

That looks good, but uk choices are white, Pearl, red or black. Annoying that you can’t spec both circuit and convenience packs as I would have liked the better stereo and heads up display,

Circuit pack it is then! it's a wrap btw, midnight green apparently.

I wonder how good the wrap would look in the flesh?

Some of them are pretty good, but still nowhere near as smooth and glossy as proper paint.

I love green cars.

Love the Tom’s body kit

This looked fun. Top handbrake action.

Im very tempted, but there is now an 18 month waiting list!

Oof.
