ODD BALL FIRST CAR - Modified Toyota IQ Review

What to get your car on the channel, send your car over to me on Facebook or Instagram searching Jamie FYD!

Yes, the ubiquitous 1.0 engine from Daihatsu is "bulletproof".
@11:02 There is no excuse to not have a rev counter in a city car with a manual. In a Toyota Aygo, Citroen C1 or Peugeot 107 it is a bolt on extra.

Just bought a Diesel one 4 cylinders 1.4D 4 D engine 90HP and 140 000 miles (215 000 Km)
Just heading for 300 000 miles will let you know. A dream to drive in Paris, Extremly spacious inside (Im 6ft1) and park where other cars cannot even dream of it.
All that for a price smaller than the car ittselve.

Ive been looking for the 1.4 d4d diesel version of this for ages, they didnt sell them here but you can import them . With a plug and play chip you are talking 120bhp and 170ft lbs of torque . Seriously quick in one of these .

I have the same car and „tuned it“ with bigger wheels and a electric Webasto Sunroof.
Loving it and yes it is even spacier compared to some bigger cars that I owned before😂

[DanRalley]

What was the mod list?
Exhaust
Intake
Larger throttle body?
2zz injectors?
Custom remap
Cheers!

I'm on my second iq now as a second car, 1.3 litre not much different to insure and 98bhp from factory, the 1 litre engine is plagued by annoying clutch vibration at 2000rpm, replacing the clutch is an expensive job with Toyota qoutinf upwards of £1200 and the vibration just comes back after few thousand miles. The 1.3 however is significantly better, much smoother drive and sits comfortably at motorway speeds + . The iq3 I purchased comes with factory nav, Bluetooth, auto lights, auto wipers, keyless entry and start and I'm looking at getting another similar to hopefully supercharge. They've only been going up in price for low mileage examples. £12k odd back in 2011 new. Buying a low mileage clean example is gonna be £7k +. Great cars but expensive to maintain unless you know a good mechanic

i saw a nice one of these on facebook marketplace considering it

[thomastalks]

Great car, I used to own a 1.0l iQ in purple - I think there may even be a video of it on my channel

[theghost]

That's an epic little car with plenty of poke for fun on B roads

[MaxTysonn]

Hey Jamie love the video. I was wondering if you could give me a full list of the modifications by any chance as i have an iq and I'm wanting to modify it but I just don't know where to start. Cheers!

[smookeyd]

I want to buy one and I want to make it more powerful can I do the same mods with a automatic transmission?

[AC-wztx]

They aren’t getting cheap. Not sure where that idea came from? Some looked after low mileage examples are close to £9K, not far of the original price brand new! The whole market is shit at the moment, nothing is cheap unless it’s a mess. They are great cars, I’m on my second one now and there’s nothing wrong with the 1l option. I would suggest going for the IQ2(1l model) or IQ3(1.33l model) as the extras are nice to have.

[DanRalley]

It would also be nice to know who actually did the custom map as there are few people that can tune these ECUs properly.

[mattmatty]

Keep the vids going buddy, wouldn’t mind seeing you view on mopeds etc, if you can get on a aprilia rs50, I would love to see your vid on it, cheers matt,

[willtato]

I have a pearl iq3 and the first thing I did was added the official wind deflectors (fitted on doors). They fit the car so well in my opinion to the point where without, something just feels wrong. I’d definitely recommend installing them.

[jeffmyers]

curious about all these bolt on parts ....

[andrewtaylor-smith]

Anyone got a link for the double din facia?

[kyrian_cy]

osaka newport do sick tunes and widebody of the iq

[MrClassy]

Will 15 inch wheels with 205/55 tyres fit the 2009 IQ 1L?
