    that black one's still for sale on here ! I am tempted simply coz it's black and I have never ever seen a Ls400 in black ......... probably special spec order maybe BUT having just taken delivery of my front UCAs from Amayama at £450 before fitting I think I'll just carry on with the dear old lady ☺️ Malc

    Welcome to the LOC I would hope a Member from your part of Yorkshire ( where is that ) on here will be able to put you in touch with his regarded Lexus independent mechanic who might be able to give you some more certainty with your car and it's issues. She looks a lovely car and clearly well cared for, just that sitting idle never does a car much good sadly Good luck with it all Malc

    last Honda Legend generation UK car here HV56GWO brilliant car on 6000 limited annual mileage insurance though. Last owner ( my bro-in-law ) had some scary suspension stuff bills but we have had this car for over 2 yrs now and nothing untoward, just front disks and pads and usual servicing consumables mpg, why worry ............... it's amazingly comfy and fast and quick when needed ....... damn awful steering lock though , turning circle the circumference of Mars Malc

    that was the case for me until this last pair of rubbers from Lexus .... I think they are now very very old stock and just don't perform the way they ought sadly I've always paid the extra ( a LOT too ) for the Lexus/ Toyota wiper rubbers and have been very pleased with them, lasting 3/4 years and 40k miles .. but this last lot are rubbish, 3 months good lifespan and they do now need changing .... I'll get my indy to replace with his cheapy rubbers, they last a year or so on the other cars whatever Malc

    I remember aeons ago ( maybe 10 / 15 years ) we had a Toyota Camry 3.0 ltr estate on our forecourt for sale ,,,,,,,,, fantastic car at that time and probably would be today too Malc

    at this mileage you would expect to have already replaced the rear trailing arms if they haven't been done . check your service history maybe ! might have had a warning / Advisory on the last MOT ( or before ) about this but not necessarily so .......... it's worth your mechanic checking them out before ordering Amayama at about £200 each plus a pitta of a job to fit Lexus UK price about £300 each + fitting it could be summat else of course 😐 Malc

    are there likely to be any/many other marques in every day use 20+ years old ? Malc
  15. Malc
    sounds an ok buy . so how much was the " cheap " purchase and the on-going costs to sort it all out ? and any more piccys ..... we love those especially . we can grow to love her too with those Malc
  16. Malc
    she should sell really easily ..... and black must be a very rare colour ....... never seen it before best wishes with it all .......... not thought to keep her yourself ? Malc
  17. Malc
    wow, that just shows how these wonderful Mk3's are appreciating in value .......... mine cost £1400 some 7.5 years ago with 123k miles AND FULL Lexus service history though These are truly amazing cars, best of luck with it, do let us know how you get on Malc
  18. Malc
    £30 and I'll have it for spares Malc ps you'll get into trouble for advertising and not being a gold member

    the point with my specific problem wasn't that the perfectly ? good front long cooler pipe was ok, nor that the pas reservoir and all that was ok ....... it was the gubbins mild steel pipework in between that had failed / rusted ...... where's the longevity of these parts gone eh ! ........... and it all seems like yesterday too Malc
  20. Malc
    Blimey, that was in May 2014 ........ 4.5 years ago and it's been all ok since ( fingers xd ) Malc
  21. Malc
    yep
  22. Malc
    long time ago I had a brilliant Saab too and the alarm kept going off for no reason other than where I sometimes parked it close to a telecoms tower Malc
  23. Malc
    and the cooler pipe in front of the radiator you can simply replace in copper tube ( tiny bore though ) for about £3 rather than the Lexus OEM part at i believe about £180 You can't really safely drive the car with the pas leak coz it will get much worse, even with topping up, and you might damage the steering box ? whatever. I had my car trailered down to my indy at the time ... £100 but worth it. Malc
  24. Malc
    something like " catastrophic power steering leak .............. " but I can't seem to find it in the search facility ....... it must have been a couple of years ago now
  25. Malc
    I had a specific thread on this a couple of years back with my Mk3 ! Can't remember it's title tho . it might have started summat like " catastrophic leak " good luck finding it . it was the gubbins pipework at the top above the cooler pipes but below the reservoir ... my guy replaced in appropriate flexi hose stuff rather than the amazingly expensive mild steel replacement OEM part Malc
