Wear your filler cap in black with pride especially around diesels and when you go to pay half what everyone else is paying when you fill up. Mike.

I thank you Beejay55. Mike.

Never heard that one before but when LPG comes into the MOT the filler will have to be a certain distance from the ground. Mike

Go ahead Adam, you wont be stepping on anyones toes. Mike.

Those insurance companies that wont are now in the minority and soon all will accept it. So if your one wont go somewhere else who wants your business and money. Mike

I presumed that the OP meant filler, as opposed to adapter. Sorry not sure what OP is. Mike.

Hi Adam. I have deleted the other thread which is just a copy of this thread. Great idea by the way, I would be up for it. Mike.

It is illegal to use an adapter in this country, never heard of anyone being prosecuted but when LPG comes into the MOT it will be picked up then and your car will fail. As we all know insurance companies will find anyway possible to get out of paying money so its up to you to find out if this will be a problem for them. LPG converted vehicles coming in from the Eurozone have a special dispensation for using adapters while they visit over here as we have to over there, except you of course. I have mine mounted in the bumper and it doesn't bother me being seen. Good luck Mike.

Could have sourced a nice straight piece of oak for the gearstick and the center of the steering wheel, it would look really naff then. Mike

A diesel LS. How very dare you. Mike.

Ironic really. Mike.

Hi Jan and welcome to the LOC. When you get your new LS430 don't forget to post some pictures inside and out as we all love to see them. Mike

Warning bells are ringing. How much has the mileage dropped? Another trader selling as a private seller. Mike.

I am with the others, not for me, it looks cheap tacky and completely tasteless. Mike.

That ones a MK3 Brian. If I was looking for one I would have my rail ticket booked and on the way down looking forward to the long drive home. Mike Stupid me another senior moment. have edited MK4 to 3 now.

Saga gave me loads of grief some years back. I had out housed insurance with them and we had a few items which exceeded their £2 limit after which you had to have the item listed with photographs and a professional valuation. All this was done, into the 2nd year one of items sadly got broken and despite adhering to all their stipulations they refused to pay out as on the other side of the form was a section on wanting to insure bicycles away from home. I had written on that side of the form Not Needed and because you could see it through the paper from the other side they argued that I had elected not to go through with the listed item. It took me 16 months to get the money and within days I had letters telephone calls from you know who asking if I wanted to take more insurance out with them. As you say Shysters. Mike

I dont think even the insurance companies know how they come up with the numbers. You just beat yourself up trying to understand the logic of these companies. Mike.

Welcome aboard, remember your car when it was up for sale and thought it was a nice one. I am sure you will enjoy lots of smiles in her. Mike

I have driven LPG cars for the last 16 years and all without problem. One thing to check is your insurance company will cover you if they don't there are plenty of good companies around that will. Mike.

Here's one that has to be worth looking at for the money an down in beautiful Cornwall. Mike. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/lexus-ls400-/271816790307?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3f498b1123

You will enjoy it all the more when they turn up. Mike.

Treat it as a holiday brilliant idea and before you go have as many as possible lined up for your inspection and I would have thought at least one would tug at your heart strings. Mike.

I know exactly what you mean when someone leaves smears on your high polished interior. Until all the marks have disappeared its still dirty to me so don't feel your alone in this need for attention to detail. Mike PS I was never in any of the forces.

Provided you don't have an aversion to paperwork there are some serious bargains to be had in Ireland. Mike.

It was listed before as an auction and at the same time he had it up with a Buy it now price of £3000. I thought it had been sold on the auction listing so perhaps who ever turned up to buy it found an awful lot wrong with it. If I am right I think it sat outside for 3 years and it would have taken alot to properly recommission it for the road. It'll be interesting to see what it eventually goes for. Mike
