Lexus Virgin Coming On Board

[Huggy...]

I have just sold my beloved Jap Classic shape WRX and am now hunting an IS200 SE or Sport. I have just seen a reasonable SE on a very popular website (without giving any plugs) which states as follows:

70,000 miles, Platinum. 6 Speed Manual, MOT (Jun 07), Tax (Jan 07). ABS, Air conditioning, Alloy wheels, Climate control, Power steering, Remote locking, Airbags. Excellent condition. £5,999. ono

I want to view this tomorrow and give an offer of around £5550 pendning quality...

Is this a reasonable price for 70k mileage for a W Reg 2000 model... ???

Thanks in advance

Deffo the best colour, good year too :D

Hope it turns out to be good one, and welcome to the club :D

Just made a call and it does have full LSH but since 30,000 and probably no cambelt change either as the owner thinks. It requires a full service because it hasn't had one for over 12 months and the front and rear bumpers were resprayed 6 months ago because they were flaking... It also has a small 1mm x 2mm chip in the front end of the bonnet...

Is it worth a visit... and how much will a ful service cost...

Thanks in advance

I went to see this car, it was one of the worst examples I have ever seen... front and rear bumper resprayed because of collision, dents on top of the boot lid... rust spots on top of the bonnet and very rusty brake calipers... cracked rear light and a clear sign of rain water getting caught because of the green deposit of fungus... eugh...!!!

Unlucky, keep looking though mate, they are an excellent car to own if you find a decent, well loved one to start with.

Plat ice has to be the best colour as well ;)
