Got to be better than the spray like my 123d has, I go through a ludicrous amount of screenwash because of it!

I swear it's on purpose as my m3 is the same, I'm currently using 5l of screenwash a month between my car and the Mrs'.

You paying for wash is a lot cheaper than them paying for wiper development.

The Focus ST I had went through screenwash like that as well :/

Not had it with other cars.

It's a bit of a running joke in the family lol.. you off to buy screenwash Matt?

Get the headlight jets coded to every 5th or 7th spray rather than default 3rd

I just don't wash my screen when the lights are on, that does it lol

I did, but it still does a double squirt and seems to use loads. I guess the headlights, while a smaller space than the windscreen probably pick up far more dirt.

Saw this and thought of you @Acme

We may well mock these days but back in their day Autocar & Motor magazine (as it was back then) described them as simply the best cars in the world.

What gets me the most is that they were massive in size to the point of excess in their day, yet these days an f10 5er is within 3 inches length wise, wider and has a longer wheelbase!

I preferred the metallic grey. I like how you kept the mirrors though.

The Toyota GR-Yaris looks fun: https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/toyota-gr-yaris-hot-hatch-unveiled-257bhp-turbo-engine

200hp per tonne
4-Wheel Drive
Manual (their compact iMT box)

Nasher · 10 Jan 2020 at 09:16

They were a very limited run last time. Kinda hard to find.

vanpeebles · 10 Jan 2020 at 09:17

Stupid price too.

Nasher · 10 Jan 2020 at 09:19

257hp and AWD in a Yaris will be fun though

But yea a lot of money for a Yaris. About 3k more than the gt86 starting price.
