ISF values on the slide

[Grey One]

I made one of my infrequent trips onto Autitrader this week and was surprised to see a couple of late (with the new gauge cluster) ISFs for sale in the 15-17k GBP price range, and with reasonable mileages.  Admittedly the lowest price one was a Cat S, but even so it seems prices are on bit of a slide for the ISF since I looked about a year ago.  Is that a correct assessment, or just with this week's choice on Aurotrader?

With the used car market tumbling, it would certainly make sense. Bar the LFA, Lexus don't make a car that will dodge the ups and downs of the market.

This looks like the strange white one that has been advertised before with mis-matching panels and a lot of miles put on just recently. Too many things don't add up. I don't think I would be taking a look at it.  Good ones are still fetching good prices, if you can find one.

The 10 plate USB one has got the front wheels on the wrong way round! and the white one has the rears on wrong🙄

There will be imported black ISF 2014 on the market soon. I am really curious how much it will go for:)

The only 2014 in the country, but sadly I think only a current ISF or previous ISF owner would understand that. Hopefully it gets sold, but it's in the wrong country. They'd go mental in the States for that!!

I had a quick look on A/T, I think values have been static or even risen over the last 5yrs since I bought mine, most listed are up on the miles & look pretty fair. EG, I nearly bought a clean 2011 with 37k on it which was dealer priced at £22700 back in '18.

If you bought an IS500/RCF I think you're looking at approx £3k PA just to keep it taxed!

That helps our cars for sure.

Yes I think ISF prices have at least kept up with inflation since 2018/9 and it will be interesting to see how they hold up over the next few years. I really don't know, what with the electric car fiasco and gov't tax penalties may be introduced more severely.

 

BTW Mines a 2012 too, not many about and never ever seen another, not even an older one!  Best car I ever had!

Still on the lookout for a good ISF - would be be interested to hear more about this one. Is this one that you'll be selling?

[DamianLEX]

Yes, it will be for sale in Swansea.

£3k PA in tax, is that in the UK? 
 

We currently pay £180 PA for road Tax on our ‘17 GS F, now that it’s passed its luxury car tax time.

Given that mine is 20 years old now I think the Government should be paying me to drive along the UK potholes. 😀

Afraid so.

Given all used prices spiked up about 2 years ago they are just starting to drop back since Christmas, some dropping by 10% 15%. So leveling out a bit but ISF still more than they were say 5 years ago. 🤔
