Hi guys
Thought I would introduce myself I'm Gavin from bath. After owning many different cars from merc. Porsche. Seat. Subaru. And land rover. I have finally ordered the new Toyota chr dynamic 1.8 hybrid. Have I made a good choice I have to wait two weeks now for delivery.

I did lots of research and found very negative comments about the car and even after test driving I found no faults

Can I ask from you guys that own them already. Is there anything I should be on the look out for especially when I go to collect the car

Thanks in advance

Hiya, I've had mine since March, I traded in a Range Rover Evoque and was a bit worried about the C-HR not living up to my expectations. I can honestly say I have absolutely no regrets, the car is amazing, looks stunning, has more gadgets and the fuel economy is great.

I came from a BMW X3 and like Crazy Caroline I am very pleased with my C-HR and have no regrets about changing. For me you made the right choice in Dynamic Hybrid. I am sure you won't regret it. Welcome enjoy your new car and post some pics when you Finally pick it up. Might see you on the road as I'm not far from Bath

Great car in many ways. The infotainment system is really badly implemented though. I have driven mine about 11000 kms since march, and I have no other complaints.

A cracked windscreen

obviously check the windscreen ,but after that im pretty sure your good to go , it is a fantastic car to drive , takes a little bit of setting up to get right but im sure you will love it . what colour did you get?
im sure people will say the infotainment system is bad but i have no complaints i just think some people expect to much from Toyota and others just dont know what they are doing, good luck and dontforget the pics when you get it

Hey thanks for the replies. I went for the pearlescent White with Black roof. The only extras I went for is the full leather interior and jbl sound system

What a lovely colour combination. I would see if the sat nav is up to date. You really don't want to waste two hours of your life downloading and uploading the 2017 version. It's a great car, you will love it.

 

[Gazza1977]

Thanks Rosie. I will post pics as soon as it arrives.

Quick question if people were gonna add one mod what would it be.

Gazza1977, hope this will also reinforce your decision. We thought the C-HR was so good that even after two cracked windscreens we still did not want to reject the car. We now have the limited edition which has premium leather seats and JBL. Both are worth having.

In other respects the car is great to drive, we are averaging >60 mpg, regardless of journey distance. And it's just the right size. Perhaps the only slight downside is the darkness in the back but our Grandkids like it. They say it's nice and private, especially when using DS's

all of the below :lol:

Very pleased with ours. It's a pretty serious departure from the sports cars that went before it!

It does the everyday stuff really well & has all the kit.

Ok, it'll not set your pants on fire & the potential for a cracked screen is a bit of a worry.

We got a discount on our LE too

Welcome. Absolutely love mine. Road holding in the hybrid is a joy.
