I've found out the C-HR is on a UK tour if anyone wants a closer look at it. Here are the dates:

Manchester Exchange Square: 30th Sept - 1st Oct
Bristol Cabot Circus: 7th Oct - 9th Oct
Newcastle Grainger Street: 14th Oct - 16th Oct
London South Bank: 21st Oct - 23rd Oct
Birmingham Bull Ring: 28th - 30th Oct

Might go up and visit it at South Bank just to be curious.

I asked and they've said you can sit in it and have a good poke around too. Going to try and get to my nearest one although it's a bit of a trek!

Hi rob,
Decided I cant do it as it would take over 5 hours to get to and £150 to get there at a perfect time hayho I'll have to wait for the dealer to get them in

Just had another look and the Manchester date is now missing.
We had planned to go on Friday afternoon, have a look and then go for a meal.
Bit disappointing now.

Rick - try them in Twitter or Instagram, they responded really quickly to me about the dates.

They did say they will be in dealers very soon after though, so hopefully not long to wait.

 

[Rikpo]

Thanks for the advise Rob, don't usually use twitter and the rest but will give it a go later.
Will let you know how I get on.

Rick.

Manchester gig is still on at Exchange Square

 

[Rikpo]

Got a reply from Toyota GB saying that it was still on.
Just had another look at the web site and its back there as well.

Good to hear. If you get chance could you take a few pictures to share on here? Not sure if I can make the journey to my nearest one yet.

 

[Rikpo]

Yes I can do that Rob, but this is Manchester so can't promise that the sun will be shining down on it.

Seen it for real at Manchester this afternoon.... here are a couple of pics.

Wait till you see the projection of the CH-R logo on the floor when you open the door, a very fancy puddle light.

Mind made up now, will order as soon as I can, in exactly this spec.

hairysmiler,
Thanks very much for posting the pictures, would have gone for same spec but with black roof and mirrors wetn for Excel Hybrid instead.

Great pictures Hairysmiler, much better than mine, I wish I'd taken my camera instead of using the phone.
It was great seeing it in the flesh and I'm really pleased that I took the plunge a few weeks back and ordered one.
I,ve gone for the dynamic in pearl white but without the leather seats and music upgrade.
I thought that it was a bit dark inside the mini show room and would have liked to have seen it in the open, although once your eyes adjusted it wasn't to bad.
This is going to be a long 3 months or so wait, although I've got 2 weeks in the Caribbean in December and then Christmas & New Year so that should help take my mind off it.
I've added a couple of photo's below.

I will be going to South Bank 21st October to take some pcitures to add to this collection, could wait for the dealer to have the C-HR in but thought it would be a day out

 

[Rikpo]

Our local dealer says that they are hoping to have one in by December, so enjoy the day out as December is still a couple of months away.

How strange as Toyota GB stated dealers should start seeing them after the UK Tour oh well unless your dealer was late in ordering maybe unless there has been a delay in bulding them for the dealers.

Yeah that's what I was told too, I know that Dec is after the dealer tour but I was expecting them soon after!

Tomorrow I will be at South Bank 11am onwards to seet the C-HR and will take some pictures with my DSLR hope they will look alright I will take Interior as well as Boot and Exterior where possible

You guys did a better job than me it was far too dark inside that structure here goes anyway:
