Used Toyota GR86 for Sale

The Toyota GR86 is a true driver's coupe, pairing a naturally aspirated 2.4-litre boxer engine with rear-wheel drive and a low centre of gravity for one of the purest driving experiences on the used market. Browse checked, prepared used GR86 models with Vertu, backed by our 14-day money-back promise and flexible finance.

Why Buy a Used Toyota GR86?

In an age of turbochargers and electrification, the GR86 is a rare thing: an affordable, naturally aspirated, rear-wheel-drive sports coupe built purely for the joy of driving. Developed by Toyota Gazoo Racing, it distils decades of motorsport know-how into a lightweight, front-engined coupe that rewards keen drivers like few cars at its price.

It was sold in the UK in limited numbers over a short period, so used examples are relatively scarce and highly sought after by enthusiasts. That rarity, combined with its growing reputation as a modern classic, makes a well-kept used GR86 a compelling find.

Any remaining manufacturer warranty transfers to you as the new keeper, and every GR86 at Vertu is prepared and checked before it reaches the forecourt. For drivers who want an involving, characterful sports car, the used GR86 is hard to match.

Is the Used Toyota GR86 a Good Buy?

Yes, for the right driver, the GR86 is one of the most rewarding affordable sports cars available. Its 2.4-litre, four-cylinder boxer engine produces 231bhp and 250Nm of torque, driving the rear wheels for a 0-62mph time of 6.3 seconds in manual form.

What sets it apart is not outright speed but balance and feel. A low centre of gravity, precise steering, a limited-slip differential and a rigid, lightweight body make it agile and communicative in a way few modern cars match. A six-speed manual gearbox is the enthusiast's choice, with a six-speed automatic also offered, the latter adding Toyota's driver-assistance safety systems.

Every used GR86 sold by Vertu is checked before it reaches the forecourt as part of our used car preparation process, covering no outstanding finance, no history as a taxi, and no salvage or write-off record. With that preparation and any remaining warranty, a used GR86 is a low-risk way into driver-focused motoring.

Who Is the Used Toyota GR86 Best For?

The GR86 appeals to a distinct set of buyers. The table below pairs four of them with what the car offers.

What Is It Like to Own a Toyota GR86?

The GR86 wears its sporting intent openly, from the muscular, aerodynamic bodywork to the low-set driving position that places you close to the car's centre of gravity. Fire it up and the boxer engine's character, sharpened by Toyota's D-4S fuel injection and Active Sound Control, sets the tone before you've turned a wheel.

Despite the focus, it remains usable day to day, with a well-equipped cabin featuring an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 7-inch TFT driver display with a dedicated track mode, dual-zone climate control, heated Ultrasuede and leather sports seats and a reversing camera. There are even small rear seats and a 276-litre boot for occasional practicality.

Because it shares Toyota's engineering and dealer network, servicing is straightforward for a specialist sports car. Once a GR86 reaches Vertu it is inspected and prepared by our technicians before sale, and servicing it through Vertu's Toyota-trained colleagues helps protect any warranty still in place.
