  1. i dont think you will notice any difference at all in petrol consumption as a heavy 2 litre car will use more than a 3 litre as it is working a lot harder to pull the weight of the car ,as for the heated seats mine are not that good compared to my vw golf that i had but then i also suffer with a bad back so i like the seat roasting,i think the mk2s seats are a lot better .
  2. sorry to put a downer on the mpg but mine is terrible around town ,i reckon about 16 to the gallon ,but on the motorway it is much better .it all depends on how you drive it ,i am very heavy footed with mine and tend to cruise at about 90mph on the motorway .
  3. I left the plate on my old car and then met up with the new owner at the dvla office and swapped it straight onto my new car ,was cheaper and a lot less hassle ,of cause you have to be able to trust the new owner but if you sign something to state that you still own the plate and it is to be transfered onto your new car at a later date there should be no problems .
  4. if you have not got your new car then it will have to go onto a retention certificate as brettster said ,this price includes the transfer fee to put it onto your new car when you get it
  5. lexus pads are £50 plus vat i put in aftermeket pads from my local spares shop and they were £20 ,in fact i did fronts and backs for less than £50 so quite a saving ,i have not noticed any difference in breaking and no difference in brake dust etc.
  6. i get the same reply even if i try to sign up for a new account ,must be a local problem ??
  7. it state that the site is unavaliable and page can not be displayed
  8. I cant access msn or log in to hot mail tried all of the accounts on the computor with no joy ,just did a restart on the computor and still no joy
  9. As the car has service history missing i would phone the last dealer who serviced it and ask if he has done any since ,could be the book just did not get stamped ,you also need to rule out that it has not been clocked as these cars will do big miles and not show it ,so ask the last garage who serviced it for as much info as possible .check steering wheel ,brake pedal, carpets(including lifting overmats) for wear.look at what dealer name is written on the number plates and give them a ring for info and as a last resort phone previous owner from the log book to check mileage .most important HPi the car even if the dealer tells you he has already done it ,it will verify mileage and tell you of any accident damage etc.ask them to knock the price of the cambelt and service of the car because at that mileage if it has been serviced the cambelt would have been done already .and to be honest i would rather get some money of and give the car to a garage i know and trust to service it especialy when a cambelt is involved .price sounds about right for the gs300 as the mileage is low but stick to yours guns and he will fold .
  10. now i am realy worried can a virus cause this as i still can not access it
  11. Been trying to access my acounts with hotmail and msn to print of my work for later but can not get them to work ,is anyone else having trouble with theirs as i am starting to panic a bit as i can not get ny work any other way
  12. were abouts are you as i have seen two for sale in kent this week and both were black,engine is the quietist i have ever had in a car ,when i first got mine i used to pull up at traffic lights and think it had cut out ,in fact it seems the only noise you can hear when cruising is that of the heater fan .Peters car should be the same model as yours, i hope
  13. Tell him thats all you have and thats all he is getting ,bet he go's for it .salesmen are good blaggers just play him at his own game and don't be tempted to give in .good luck
  14. Not cheap mate try this link has some info http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...hl=radiator++gs
  15. easy to fit just watch for air locks and add the right amount of antifreeze ,if the top and bottom part of your rad is ok and it is only the fins that have gone get it reconditioned as it is a lot cheaper ,just means you won't have your car for a couple of days
  16. Its a subject i know all to well http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...topic=19644&hl=
  17. not a lot to check realy as they are a very reliable car ,but make sure there is no wheel wobble at speed as they suffer from this quite a lot ,make sure service history is up to date and full lexus and as said before HPi the car to check for accident damage etc ,how much is the car going for ,you could use the search feature at the top of screen as it has been covered quite a lot in the past.
  18. they are still cack though, overpaid and over rated
  19. What is the cost of this
  20. thats a good point peter forgot all about that ,i think i won :duh: how do i claim my prize claire
  21. I'd hope not ! - a HPi check was done ........ of course. It's just annoying me that the badge is so far over to the left ............ @ Pete ....... a rebadged IS200 ? .... hmm ... unless IS200's can do a top speed of ..... caugh caugh ... Then maybe not :D :D ← Third party write off maybe .
  22. can the wheel on the bottom be taken out ,if so give it a clean have to do this with mine quite often as it gets coated with crap ( i always blame to kids)
  23. I get roughly 15k out of mine but i only have 18s on the back ,it is always the inner 15% that wears out first and they are due for renewal now ,have always fitted pirreli p zeros but i am gonno go for something a bit cheaper this time .have you the 10 inch rears on yours as it is normal for these to eat tyres
  24. Sunbeam rapier with the holbay engine in it ,it was black with loads of chrome and when you wound down the windows the pilers came down to ,full length vynal sunroof .Met its end when me dad came back from the pub and got out of the car and stated fighting some bloke behind for calling him something and he left the door open ,a number 36 bus came along and took the door straight of and wrote it of ,was a very sad day
