It is now a common feature on many vehicles of today to have keyless entry and start. Whilst this is a convenient and fantastic way to access and start your vehicle, the technology that enables this functionality (RFID – Radio Frequency Identification) puts your car at risk and leaves it open to attack by criminals. This can result in loss of personal property and potential vehicle theft.
What is Keyless theft?
On Saturday 8th June, Currie Motors Toyota Twickenham & Currie Motors Toyota Kingston were at Topgolf Surrey showcasing the All New RAV4. With the sun making an appearance, it was a fun and busy day for both sales teams from our branches as we also held the four ball challenge.
The All New RAV4
Spinal Track is a charity which is dedicated to giving free rally experiences and track days to disabled drivers with adapted cars developed by racers who understand the wants and needs of disabled car enthusiasts.
A one of a kind rally course
The new Spinal Track Rally Experience is the UK’s first rally experience designed for disabled drivers. It offers the opportunity to drive a modified rear-wheel-drive Toyota GT86 on a gravel rally stage.
What is an MOT?
The MOT test was introduced back in 1960 by the Ministry of Transport to check that vehicles on our road meet safety standards, as set by the DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency). Today cars also have to meet emissions standards.
When do I have to take my vehicle for its MOT test?
Once your vehicle is 3 years old, it will need to go for its MOT test and then again every year. You are welcome to take the car to be tested a month prior to its current MOT certificate expiring.
If your vehicle was registered before the 1st October 2011 and you have owned it for over 6 months, you could be eligible for our Scrappage Scheme.
A £2,000 scrappage saving is available on the AYGO while you can save £2,500 on Yaris ranges (excluding Hybrid)*.
Toyota GR Supra GT4 (Concept)
The Toyota GR Supra GT4 concept made its debut at the show on the 5th March 2019. The vehicle is a design and engineering study that explores how the newly launched fifth generation of the legendary Supra sports car could be developed into a winning competitor for the international GT4 racing.
Developed by Toyota Gazoo Racing, the concept model is instantly recognised as a Toyota Supra. It maintains the road car’s muscular shape but with a longer length and lower height.

Cheque presentation
The annual Toyota Best Retailer in Town Awards 2018, or better known as The Toyota BRIT Awards, was held on Wednesday 20th February 2019 at the St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel in London to reward Toyota’s best-performing centres nationwide, recognising excellence in all areas of work across its retail network.
Our team was thrilled to be presented with The Best Toyota Group Award at the ceremony, hosted by TV presenter and stand-up comedian Lenny Henry. All of our staff is very excited and exceptionally proud at this excellent achievement.
What is happening and why?
There have been different schemes launched in parts of the UK that allow residents with low emission cars to receive a discount on their parking permits. Some, such as Richmond Borough, are even allowing car parking for qualifying vehicles for free! Research shows that Richmond upon Thames householders are producing more Co2 than most other boroughs in London. Therefore by implementing these schemes, Richmond hopes to make a positive impact on reducing the Co2 emission and helping global warming.
Currie Motors are always interested in recruiting exceptional individuals who are looking to start or continue their career within the motor industry.

Known for its ability to handle all kinds of tough terrain – including the North Pole, South Pole and the Dakar Rally – Hilux has been the go-to vehicle if you’re in the market for a powerful workhorse.
Its indestructible reputation has been built over seven generations of constant development and testing in the harshest of topographies. From navigating treacherous icy ridges to entering an active volcano – the boundaries of impossibility keep on being pushed.
To understand the full legend though, we first need to delve back to where it all began…
The Toyota Mirai has become the first hydrogen fuel cell electric car to drive the length of Britain from John O’Groats to Land’s End, in the process emitting nothing but a few litres of pure water along the way.
