Key Points: 1.6-litre Turbocharged 275bhp 3-cylinder, Rally homologation special, All-Wheel Drive, 1 Owner from new

The Toyota Yaris GR may share its name with Toyota's 5-door city-bound hatchback. However, that is where the similarities end. The only shared components between the two are the headlights, tail lights, mirrors and shark-fin roof antenna. The GR features a bespoke, highly-rigid chassis and an all-new lightweight body. This is the first Toyota to feature a carbon composite roof and a substantial amount of lightweight aluminium across the rest of the car, making it far lighter than the steel used in the standard Yaris.

The GR Yaris is a homologation special, much like the original E30 M3, the new Ford GT and the Lancia Stratos. They were originally designed to be entered into the World Rally Championship. Sadly the rally car never came to be, but all the rally-inspired enhancements did make it to the road with this wonderful, purebred driver's car.

This example features some modifications, including Recaro Nurburgring Seats, JCR Seat Lowering Kit, Ohlins Suspension, ITG Maxogen Air Filter.
