Toyota GT86 named Best Coupe in 2012 Scottish Car of the Year awards

The Toyota GT86 has received its first UK honour, being named Best Coupe in the 2012 Scottish Car of the Year awards.

The GT86 followed up its debut success on track in the recent Britcar 24 Hours race by winning its category in the Scotland’s premier new car awards,
voted for by members of the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers.

"The new coupe category produced some cracking contenders and, for most of the year, it looked as though the voting would go one way. Then Toyota returned to the segment with a vengeance and amazed everyone," said John Murdoch, Association President.

"Not only is the GT86 incredible to drive, but for a sporting coupe it's surprisingly frugal on fuel."
