Glue a decent magnet inside the column shroud roughly where the keys hang.

That's good to know Ian cos I was gonna do my rear lights same as the front! Thanks mate!!

Sorry but that's just rubbish. The idea that a periodic fluid change will damage an automatic gearbox is just complete lunacy.

Don't have anything else on your car key? I don't anyway after I had a key snap in the barrel once on a honda. Got told it was because if all the other keys attached to it weighing down on it

That's what I love about this motoring club, I have belonged to about 6 in my driving life and this club knocks all of them into a cocked hat (what ever one of those is) when it comes to offers of help. Well done again LOC. Mike

Needs one of these for the rear, good thing it's already colour matched so no paint required here either!

I should be able to make this one, cambelt being done as we speak! :)

Snapped off more like!

I'm going for that,I'd buy it,just for the attention to detail /finish,on the front spoiler,it's a wonder it hasn't been snapped-up by now........

What really sets that body styling apart from the rest is the tow bar!

Thought your medication was sending the brain doo lally.

Colour is misdescribed sure it should be green and cream? It would look better with some sponsorship stickers on the doors "Holts Body Filler" :)

My eyes hurt...

Oh lol... Thought you had lost it!

Gorgeous car. Puts our LS 400s in the shade . . .

I always thought it to be Luxury EXecutive United States,but a check on Wikipedia says differently. 'In 1986, Toyota’s longtime advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi formed a specialized unit, Team One, to handle marketing for the new premium brand.[12] Image consulting firmLippincott & Margulies was hired to develop a list of 219 prospective names; Vectre, Verone, Chaparel, Calibre and Alexis were chosen as top candidates.[19] While Alexis quickly became the front runner, concerns were raised that the name applied to people more than cars (being associated with the Alexis Carrington character on the popular 1980s primetime drama Dynasty),[19][20] and as a result the first letter was removed and the "i" replaced with a "u" to morph the name to Lexus.[20] The etymology of the Lexus name has been attributed to the combination of the words "luxury" and "elegance,"[21] and another theory claims it is an acronym for "luxury exports to the U.S."[21] According to Team One interviews, the brand name has no specific meaning and simply denotes a luxurious and technological image.[19] Just prior to the release of the first vehicles, database service LexisNexisobtained a temporary injunction forbidding the name Lexus from being used as they stated it might cause confusion.[22] The injunction threatened to delay the division's launch and marketing efforts.[22] Upon reflection, a U.S. appeals court lifted the injunction, deciding that there was little likelihood of confusion between the two products.[22]'

Hi and welcome :) Common probs :- Leaky boot (as you know) Leaky windscreen if not original so stress to the fitter doing your new one these a prone to leaking after replacement and it'll leak into your footwell fuse box totally messing up the electrics. Sticky/seizing front callipers (very very common so check for any steering wheel vibration under braking or any hot smelling brakes or your front wheels getting stupidly hot) Lower front ball joints. I've had to replace these on both my IS200 at 90k and my IS300 at 76k
