You have to stop believing all these stories that all these great blokes tell you. All they are really after is that money in your bank account and they will say anything that helps them get it. Mike.

Here's a link to it. Mike. https://www.gov.uk/check-mot-history

When did you have in mind for coming over? Mike.

"Hard & Fast Rule" They do on Autotrader, if you advertise more than 6 (I think) cars in a year they do it automatically that you are a trader. Don't know why Ebay cant do the same. Mike. yep gumtree has a similar rule in place Just looking at the same car on gumtree, got there putting 07555920534 in google. Where does it say whether trade or private? Not saying it doesn't, just that I can't see it. thats being sold by lexuschap Trade Yes, I realise that, but where does it actually say it's a trade ad? Couldn't see that, don't for get Gumtree belongs to Ebay so I doubt they are really bothered. Mike Does it really, I didn't know that. I'm sure you're correct about them not being bothered, nobody seems to be these days, it's all about the money. Isn't it a sad indictment on our society? Mike.

did you enquire? why is no MOT record bar one? Too many questions for it to remain a serious buyer. Mike.

So, can I assume that you feel I've been sold a fast one? What have you bought. I didn't think you had purchased anything yet. As for his motivation, I don't know him so cant comment but these fables that some of them spout are just complete rubbish and basically goes to show they do not have a clue about LPG, if they were knowledgeable about LPG they wouldn't come out with this drivel. Mileage on my present car running on LPG is around 50,000 miles & over 5 years, no faults, but my last car which was a W124 Mercedes estate 2 litre, I did 125,000 miles and all faultless. That car is still running around today and still running faultlessly on LPG. Over the years if you were to add up the mileages of both my cars and the wifes it runs into hundreds of thousands of miles over the 16+ years. I notice that a few other members who have been running their LS400s have commented on what their experience is with LPG which is all good. There have been a couple who have had problems with theirs and this is mainly down to poor installation and so called LPG engineers not knowing what they are doing. I had mine fitted by Profess down in South Wales which cost £1000 and they fitted it in a day and lent me a car for the day to enjoy the beautiful countryside in Wales for the day. You are more than welcome to come and see mine and I will happily take you for a ride and you can inspect my installation. Just let me know when by Private Message and I will let you have my phone number and address. One thing I should add is that they will not allow your car to go through the Channel Tunnel and there are alot of Lexus garages that will service the engine once the LPG installation has been done but there are plenty that will with many independent garages who will. Mike.

Here I am promoting the joys of a bigger bank account while driving a fabulous V8. First of all LPG burns at a lower temperature to Petrol so if the guys valves burnt out they were already on their way out before running on LPG. I have run on LPG for 16+ years for all my cars and the wifes, we have never ever had any trouble with any of the systems we have had installed and some of the cars that we have sold on are still running without problems. The other con is those who try to screw every penny and more out of the victims try to sell you an oil feed system at around £100. This was true 20+ years ago before we converted to lead free petrol, all the valves needed hardening which all modern engines are at point of manufacture now. The single most important thing when spending your money is to insure that whoever you choose installs the system properly and neatly because believe you me there are plenty that turn up for work on a horse and it doesn't matter how much you pay for or whatever system you chose if its not installed properly its just money down the drain. One more thing ignore anything UKLPG tell you, they are not an official government body that oversees the LPG industry in the UK they are just a LTD company who like to give the impression that they are government accredited but they are not, they are in it just just for money and no other reason. Mike. PS I am paying 48p a litre.

Oh dear we seem to have lost about 45000 miles. I wonder what happened to the original wheels. Mike.

So I wasnt wrong then? Mike.

Its a shame he doesn't describe the car properly and honestly if he is such a nice fellow instead of hoping to pass it on to some poor unsuspecting buyer. Mike.

My mistake I thought from historic threads he had been referred to as a trader. Mike.

I thought Baz was another dealer so he would have bought it on a trade agreement which means once I have your money dont bother coming back and moaning this is wrong that's broke etc. Would it not be stamped now on the V5? Mike.

Be careful about cutting off the cigarette lighter plug off and then hard wiring in as I think there may be a transformer in the cig plug. Mike.

You can always go in and negotiate hard to bring the price down. What they ask for and what they get are two different things. Mike.

Does that plate have to be changed as I think its an Irish one isn't it. Don't shoot me down in flames if I am wrong. It seems to have done alot of time doing nothing since having done only 6000 miles since Sept 2011. There has to be a good reason why this has hung about for so long. Mike.
