I don't understand how people think £30k is way too expensive. At the end of the day it's not JUST a Yaris. It's a completely bespoke body, new engine, new 4wd system, suspension/brakes etc etc and all the development that went into it, quite frankly I dont know how they can sell it at £30k and not make a loss.
Compare it to MINI GP3 - standard body with a mad bodykit, drop in engine already used elsewhere, only FWD, take out the back seats = £38k.
I'd love a run in one. Think it would feel a lot more nimble and alive, like say 90's rally cars, whereas most modern hot hatches, while very fast, just feel very linear and subdued.
My comment was more to do with spending 30k+ on a Yaris, I'm not saying it's not worth it, or over priced. I would love a drive in one, I just wonder how many people will buy one new.
