  1. Sports Cars In The Park. I saw your car there, nice! I was a few away in the same row (asphalt grey). Next one organised by the same group is Castle Howard in September.

    I thought it was a great day out. I’ll try to make Castle Howard if I can. This was an interesting wrap. 46ea887fae0e76ce377d066b794b8ff3.jpg

  2. That's exactly the same spec as mine.
    edit/ sorry no i've got the half leather seats. So everything about the Pro that Luke wrote but minus the spoiler

    Yeah me too - I just edited mine! I have the half leather seats. So it looks like a pro without a spoiler. What does the D-4S mean?

  3. That’s exactly the same spec I bought brand new back in 2017. They did two trim levels back then. A GT86 which is what yours is and a GT86 pro which gained half leather and perforated alcantara interior with heated seats and alcantara door trim. Plus the black aluminium boot spoiler and a sat nav stereo. I wasn’t fussed about the seats and didn’t like the boot spoiler so saved myself £2k and bought the same one as you. I’ve have since added a 5 axis boot lip spoiler as I think it finishes off the rear of the car nicely. 

    Enjoy. 

     

    Interesting. I didn’t realise they did that. I have half leather seats and have heated seats, a Sat nav stereo, alcantara door trim (and dash).

     

    Have you a photo of the 5 axis boot lip spoiler fitted on your car?

     

     

    My log book states GT86 Pro D-4S.

     

    So I’m thinking it’s a pro but for some reason doesn’t have the spoiler.

    Cheers Mac - I’m really looking forward to learning a bit about the car and the scene.

  5. Hello everyone, I’m Darrin and I’ve just bought the car I’ve always wanted.

     

    I’ve always had sensible, family type cars on PCP deals.

     

    Then suddenly lost my dad, inherited a little bit of money and thought - life is too short.

     

    So, much to the wife’s dismay, last Saturday I bought an 86.

     

    To be fair, we only have one teenage lad and she has an Evoque to run us all around in - so I think she’s just jealous.

     

    My lad loves it and I’m clearly the coolest dad on the school run!

     

    I’ve joined the club because I know nothing about the cars except they look fantastic and handle like a dream.

     

    I hope to get out to some meets during the year to have a nosey at everyone else’s.

     

    Hope everyone is doing ok.

     

    Darrin.
