Trading It In For An Is250

michaelH · February 1, 2009

Time to move on after five and half years and just under 50,000 miles. All being well I will say goodbye to my blue 02 sport (which I have had from Sept 2003 and now has 83,000 on the odo) on Thursday and take delivery of a 56 reg IS250 SE-L mm auto in Mesa Red. All subject to final approval of the new car when it is brought up to Leicester from Bristol on Wednesday.

I haven't posted much for a few years now, mostly because there hasn't been much to report. Nothing really has ever gone wrong with it, except when I scuffed the front bumper (a little). A bit of inside edge tyre wear, but not much. Great car. Test drove a Merc CLK200k (08 plate) that sounded quite rough in comparison.

For what its worth I think that superguarding was a good investment and will have it done to the new one.

GX02 ROC in case you see it for sale or at auction.

Hi Michael,

Would appreciate some feedback if you don't mind please.......

Strangley enough, at the weekend I viewed your old car and put deposit down - GX02 ROC - Metallic Blue - The car is in immaculate condition, very impressed - no scuff on front bumper that I noticed!

Looks like it has a full lexus service history with the cam belt changed at 76,000 miles.

I note that you sold it in auction in early feb - it now has 83,700 miles - not sure where it has been since feb until now! I think that it only has 2 previous owners.

Just wondering is there any problems that I should be aware of?? Was anything flagged up at your last service that needs doing??

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Boycey
