Is Toyota UK Website Down?

[MR2Mania]

Hi all,

I’ve been trying to access the Toyota UK website, to find my nearest dealer, for something like 3 days, but it seems to be done. Is it my Service Provider, or is it the same for others?

This is the URL I’m trying to get to:
http://www.toyota.co.uk/

Regards,
Dino

Seems OK here - where are you living these days? I'll bung a search in for you and post the details back.....

Thanks, Mitch. But once I'd found out that others were able to hit that site, I was on to NTL and between me and the techie on duty, we've worked out that there's an issue with their Proxy server for the area. He's given me a temporary proxy address to use while they resolve it, so I managed to find my local dealer.

That sucks on NTL's part. If I wasn't so Net savvy, I'd have thought that it was somehow Toyota's fault. Oh well.

Thanks again, matey.

There's certain websites that I can't get to by name (reasons unknown even to my ISP!!!!).

Could be another case of a corrupt Hosts file on your PC?

Unfortunately not, my hosts file (which I'd never even heard of until it was mentioned in another thread) is pretty much empty
