Found this when looking at wheels on Gumtree. It seems Toyota Australia in 2008/09 approached Auto Salon to upgrade a Yaris and a Rav 4 for a car show.

Almost a decade along the Yaris is up for sale. It appears to have also lost its original titanium wheels as well.

Here is some original info on it:

And you can find plenty of articles on it including posts from the head of the project on other Yaris forums by googling: toyota camouflage yaris project ng 

It would be cool if it could get into the hands of those that would really look after it. Hopefully a forum member picks it up.

what a waste.

sitting out in the elements to rot and die.

it appears the front passenger tyre has a puncture?!

But just imagine the insurance bill on that kinda thing too!

Yeah my thoughts too a total shame.

Not sure how insurance would go with a rollcage etc.
