I Went Fishing Today And Caught......

[bluenose1940]

No no no, this is not another story of 'The one that got away' more so a tale of what I caught and will definitely be keeping.

My 'catch' comes in at over 15feet long and tips the scales at over 4500lbs and, without any doubt whatsoever is the best catch in all my years of fishing!!

Here are a couple of piccy's

Seriously folks, after all my threads/posts over the past few months, I have finally got there.

The car is a smidgen over one year old, it is Mesa Red, it is the Premier version, it has 4600 miles on the clock, it has a Tracker fitted, the dealer very kindly fitted my dashcam including a rear one as part of the deal. I have got 4 years warranty on it (I purchased the 2 for 1 extended warranty that kicks in after the remainder of the manufacturers warranty ends in December 2016) It also came with a full tank of fuel.

I have met the previous owner, he lives less than a mile from me. I mentioned this story in an earlier thread, here is an extract from that thread -

"Funny thing this morning, I walked into a shop and tripped up a step as I didn't notice the 'MIND THE STEP' notice as I was looking at the chap who was holding the door open for me. We exchanged pleasantries and each went about our business. Fifteen minutes later I was walking back to my car and there was the same chap sitting in a beautiful red IS300h Premier and so I tapped the window and got chatting to him again. he has had the car for 12 months and he is part exchanging it at the end of December as he is getting an NX300h as it will be easier to get into and out of. The car has only got just over 4000miles on the clock. Lucky chappie eh!"

Thanks to all you members who have been so helpful with answers to my many and varied questions on the 300h

I now have to spend some time getting to know the car and all of its goodies, and so I expect that I will have to ask more questions.

One question already, is there any way that I can tell if I have the 'F' update that I have seen mentioned in other threads?

Congrats Geoff, and I remember reading the thread in question!

I can't exactly remember where you find the software version.

One thing to remember, when you try and set up for the portal it asks you for a vehicle identifier, which has dashes in it. Don't put the dashes in the registration system even though it suggests you should. Hope that makes sense.

Enjoy it!!
