White isf on ebay

[Mattmech]

Very nice looking white isf on eBay. Looks like a well kept very low mileage example at a good price. Good buy for somebody.

any bodies off of here?

Does look a nice one. Wish the owner had gone into a bit more detail with the info though. I think with a car like this you should really go to town with your ad as it's likely to appeal to a 'car enthusiast'. He obviously likes Lexus as he wants to replace with a GSF. 

I wonder how many owners it's had (the service history has quite a few different dealer stamps)? I wonder how long 'some time' is?

Has the big service been done (that I've seen mentioned on here should be carried out at 6 years, even with low miles)?

Wonder why it's been used so little since 2011?

Looks very nice though.

If it's the one in Hereford he is also selling his mint sc430 to help fund his GSF,he seems to be a real enthusiast of Lexus and keeps everything in order.

I know this car up to about 18 months ago it was owned by a guy who lived a few roads away from me. The reg number on it then was L3 XKG the original number was AV09 EJO. 

It used to have non standard cosmetic parts which meant it kept failing mots this was all rectified when It was sold by him to Lexus Exeter. I remember it as a nice car with a low mileage but 5/6 owners which isn’t that unusual with these, as we all know.

The owner back then was on the forum can’t remember his name on here though.

Although mines Silver many say they look best in White.... what say you @Warrington guy Dave 😊

Wheels are on back to front.

Happened to me once.  As soon as someone pointed it out...  OCD kicked in.

See if you can knock a few quid off because of it ;-)

Looks lovely though.  I wanted a white one :-(

[Warrington guy]

Big rat . Correct 

[BUG4LIFE]

Awesome, where else can you come to to find out so much about a car :)

Pity it has had quite a few owners. Not that that makes it a bad car but my preference would be to buy something that hasn't changed hands every year or so!

[mrfunex]

The owners thing could be a bit of a put-off. The ISF is just on the cusp (imo) of being “that sort of car”, where a change of owner every year wouldn’t be an issue.

Is it the one with 3 owners? If so, that’s not bad for a 8 year old car...?  

[stevet]

I don’t mind getting a car with lots of owners. If they are like me I spend quite a bit at first to get it spot on.

Yes this number of owner issue I would not want to do someone a disservice who is trying to sell a car, but if you change your number plate or address whatever I see that some car information sites count this as ‘number of owners’, thereby giving a false number.

Has anyone else been subjected to this ?

It looks a lovey example and the mileage is low . And it’s white . If I was looking for one , I would be really interested in this one

@BUG4LIFE tell us what the exact spec of car you are looking for, year, mileage, number of owners and ball park price as you seem really keen to find an ISF, if we see something or hear of one we can give you the heads up. 

Might make the process easier for you.

Obviously price is an important factor so I'll be looking at cars under £20k.

Year, any. Though my budget limits me to the earlier ones (which is fine).

Mileage, I'd like under 60k though service history and finding a cared for example is more important.

Service history would have to be pretty much perfect, though I don't mind some 'specialist' servicing as long as I still have the option of buying the Lexus warranty I hear so much about on here.

Number of owners. Again, finding a car that's obviously been looked after is top of the list but thinking into the future, if I bought a car making me the 7th owner, how much more of a problem am I giving myself selling it (when GSF's become more affordable)?! So ideally I'm thinking 4 previous.

Colour, any, though I'd prefer the black interior as I'm not sure I could cope with worrying about people marking the light leather seats :)

I am serious about buying one but I have time on my side, so no probs waiting for the right one to come along.

I might just drop the seller a message and ask how many owners it's had, in case the situation is as you mention.

Ive seen this car around Hereford many times. Its absolutely mint. Infact ive spoke to Keith on a couple of occasions and he really is a true lexus enthusiast who takes great pride and joy in his vehicles. 

Im seriously considering selling my IS250 and purchasing this ISF

Changed your mind on ISFs? I recall you saying you were not impressed.

These sort of comments are from someone that has no actual experience of the car, their comments are normally supposition........................

Thanks 😀

The previous owner Keith actually lives 5 minutes away from me in hereford and I've spoken to him on a couple of occasions. 

I had no idea the car was for sale until I read this thread.

I gave him a call yesterday and went round to view the car and we did the deal 😀
