I bought another LS400, because I have a problem!

[hockeyedwards]

Hi I'm Kieran and I have a problem with buying cars!

Advertised on LS owners on facebook, was this amazing example with fairly low/ mild miles. Reasonable price, from a lovely guy and an hours drive away. So why not?! It is completely original, Lexus/ Toyota service history up until recently, all alloys refurbed, essentially new tyres, new bushes, ariel, boot seal and discs/ pads all round. All the electronics inside work as they should. Checked a few areas for 'usual suspects', only thing that needs doing are the bonnet struts.

you're a very lucky guy

Registered 1996, currently sat on reg L400 SMD, 93k miles, MOT history looks decent.

Just seemed a bit silly to let it pass me by. Have checked its history a little more and it is due a cambelt.

It will sit for one month unfortunately and be started and 'round the block' driven whilst I move things around. The 70 mile journey home was an absolute delight!

I would like to put some DHP wheels on it as I feel it would really finish it off, not overly keen on current wheels but appreciate the OEM-ness and the fact they are mint does help.

and there's me paying £340 to have my OEM original wheels refurbished week after next !

What a great find, looks really nice👍
I’m still looking for a nice mk3, if I do find one I’ll buy it and sell the Mk4 I have.

The UK LS owners group on facebook pops up with some gems now and again. Seen plenty of amazing examples exchange hands. I am also on autotrader/ ebay/ car and classic on a daily basis. Do you have any specific colour scheme you are looking for? Happy to keep an eye out and then message you a link if something comes up 🙂

Thanks Kieran, that would be good. I also look on autotrader/ ebay/ car and classic and Facebook market place but stopped looking on the UK LS400 owners on Facebook. Maybe I’ve been looking at the wrong group, the one I’ve joined is:
