Hello mate, I am new to this forum and this is my first query. Ive just brought a IS200 Navigator sport, W reg in Aztec Fire. But it has no user handbook, and the CD that came with it was for the latest 200 (for some stupid reason).

Have you got the handbook so that i can work out how to use things, like the headlight washers?

Or would you know which section of the forums i could get help from?

Any help is appriciated.

Thanx

Gurj

Depending if you got the bottom loading CD player, I might have that off you.

so that i can work out how to use things, like the headlight washers?

Make sure the water in the window washer is full, they only work when your headlights are on.

I was looking at 1 of the cars Matt has, needs alot of working doing to it, but most parts can come from my old 1.

CAT ‘A’

A written-off vehicle that must be totally destroyed, including all of its parts.

CAT ‘B’

A written-off vehicle from which the spare parts may be re-sold, but from which the body-shell should be destroyed so that the vehicle cannot be returned to the road.

CAT ‘C’

A vehicle that is written-off by the insurers because the repair costs are greater than the value of the vehicle itself, but which can nonetheless still be potentially repaired to a roadworthy condition.

CAT ‘D’

A vehicle that has been written-off by the insurers, for various possible reasons, even though its physical repair costs are less than the vehicle’s actual value.

http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...ery&id=1213

would be willing to drop the price if i can take some bits off it and return them to standard

[chips229]

Hi,

Glad you werent hurt,shame the other driver just drove off,there scum in my book for not even checking you were ok.

[RichEO]

Vultures circling...

If you get the car back for spares then:

1. Removeable cupholder bits from the glove box(es)

2. 4xCovers for the end of the runners at the back of the front seats (if not going with interior)

3. Washer bottle filler neck (if it's not smashed to bits)

Or if anyone else has the above fiddly bits for me, let me know. Maybe a trip to the dealers wud sort me out :duh:

Have a heavy crash, come out unscathed. Hmm, time for a faster car. Nice thinking :winky:

Rich.

[waddy]

shame the other driver just drove off

Hmm

[lexus_IS_200]

are the side skirts up for sale

[TomCooper]

Having major difficulty trying to get the car back at the moment.. will keep you posted.

"the don" and fargo how much you looking for your IS's?

[waddy]

Shame - the wheels are worth big dollar on their own.

The exhaust set up is also worth a few bob.
