Sold-out Toyota GR Yaris heads up classic car auction

An example of the critically acclaimed Toyota GR Yaris, plus the reborn GR Supra, will be sold by Classic Car Auctions this September.

A pair of modern performance Toyotas will take centre stage at the Classic Car Auctions (CCA) sale next month.

Leading the pack is an example of the currently sold-out Toyota GR Yaris hot hatchback. Toyota has filled allocations for both this year and 2022 with its pint-sized rally replica.

It means the CCA event could mark one of the few opportunities to take home the homologation special, which was named UK Car of the Year 2021.

Confirmed for sale is a 2020 Toyota GR Yaris, fitted with the desirable Circuit Pack

At the heart of the GR Yaris is a 261hp turbocharged three-cylinder engine, connected to an all-wheel-drive system. The Circuit Pack option brings 18-inch BBS alloy wheels and track-tuned suspension, plus front and rear Torsen limited-slip differentials to the party. 

The GR Yaris set to be auctioned is finished in Scarlet Flare Red, and features a black Ultrasuede interior. 

Whoever ordered the GR Yaris has shown commendable restraint, with only 29 miles recorded on the odometer. A pre-sale estimate of £28,000 to £34,000 compares favourably to the £33,020 list price.

A Supra-sized bargain?

Joining the GR Yaris as part of the CCA sale is a low-mileage example of the latest Toyota GR Supra. 

A joint venture with BMW, the 2020 GR Supra up for sale is powered by a turbocharged 3.0-litre straight-six engine. With 340hp sent to the rear wheels, the Supra can accelerate from 0-62 mph in 4.3 seconds. 

The Supra for sale is painted in Downshift Blue, and comes in Pro specification. This means 19-inch alloy wheels, and a JBL sound system.

With the odometer reading 2,384 miles, an auction estimate of £35,000 to £40,000 is well below the £54,365 list price. 

As part of the Practical Classics Classic Car & Restoration Show, the CCA auction takes place on 25 September.
