Hi,

Looking at a 2001 LS430 - good service history up to 69k back in 2012 but since then nothing. I have said that whilst the car has only done 20k since that time (88,500 miles), the cambelt and water pump will be due. How much is this and how much would you guys on here value the car roughly? My thinking was circa £2,500. Thanks.

Very difficult to put a value on these cars. Trade wise they are not worth much but to those "in the know" they can attain decent money - depending on condition.

Consider your valuation of the car and then look on AutoTrader to see what you ca.n buy for that money (other makes not just Lexus). I was somewhat surprised of how little you get for £4,000

specifically check for dreaded MOT failure rust on the rear subframe and cills areas .  there's a guy posting here very recently with just that problem having sadly,  badly bought a 51 plate Ls430

Cambelt waterpump pulley check / changes could set u back a days labour plus parts ….. it’s a big job
