2.5 TT whipped my head into the headrest while i was Yaaaaahhhhhooooooo! :) :) :) :)

[Zee007]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

Any more information..............? :D

[Mr-Lex]

[Chris.S]

Excellent

From a Barge to a Speedboat :shutit:

[Steve]

some facts about barges

the ES300 is the second longest directly after the IS200

then its the GS300

then the Soarer then the LS400

so really it wasnt a very big barge.

you can call it a speedboat if you like... quick one too! :winky:

popeye needs to show off to Olive!

[TonyGoose]

How COULD you

It hasn't even got green tyres

Nice one mate - Comes with a partnering fuel tanker i assume :D

[Steve]

well.. i must admit.. that lil red light did show pretty quickly!

but heck.. a car like that has to be worth it!

i am trying to find out if the manual is any quicker than the auto!

[Claire G]

Bagsy I get a passenger ride in it !!!

Looks sweet as a nut :D

[ricky_is200]

Nice one Steve, are you going to keep the barge as well?

[Bobski]

[Monster-Mat]

now sort them there wheels....excellent steve

[Loz]

Mate! that is excellent!! one sweet motor!

I see you are determined not to have a Lexus, but that is the sweetest alternative I can think of for the bucks. Great choice and happy motoring.

Take it Debbie is well impressed then.

She may even lower the dosage of viagra in your spinach... :P

:zee:

Race ya?

[Steve]

Loz.. as far as I am concerned it is much a Lex as any other. It certainly was when i drove one in the states a few years back.

However like my old car I can buy my parts through toyota.. afterall the mark up on lexus parts is alot more than buying it through a toyota dealership but you are still buying a toyota part and it comes from the same factory. Food for thought! :winky:

Also its suits me to a T because I also run TOC.. so i get the best of both worlds.

Series 1 GS was my second choice.. liked the looks.. but i knew i was gonna be peeved with the same performance as my old car. Time to step up to something and enjoy it.

hmm tempting offer there mate... Loz likes to be bottle fed :P

[JOHNNY-BOY]

Nice one Steve, looks like a nice straight motor.

Any plans to mod at all?

[Loz]

cool mate,

So is the 170 mph baby that you spoke of? I'd love to ride hot gun with you. when I firt clocked eyes on the Soarer I wanted one. that was years ago. they still look every bt as good today.

If things were different I'd happily have a leathered up soarer and think aobut nozzing it up...

hope you have a helmet for those track days you'll surely be going on.

Ps. Popeye, go easy on brutus!

:zee:

[Loz]

i am trying to find out if the manual is any quicker than the auto!

computers tend to change gear quicker than humans. also lex have an adaptive box that learns your driving style so the auto makes the changes to suit your heavy-footedness. But with popye behind the wheel I am sure you will beat the computer, mate! and to be honest, if it does 170mph, who cares how long it takes you to change gear!!!!! no fecker will be there to see!

[Steve]

well i will be happy to take ya for a spin mate... there should be a few meets coming up soon... santa pod, karting (when is this happening)

I wanted leather loz.. but getting all the exact requirements was hard... however, I have found a source that will redo the seats and side panels for around 1K... but that is bottom of the list
