Looking at this ISF. Like it in white, good miles on the car (not too high). Anyone know it?

Harey - you have a PM

Thanks for all the replies. Time is on my side in that I am not in any rush although I am impatient once I know what i want!

One I like is up for 19k. Was going to ask for 17 and go from there if i go and look at it.

Seems an incredible car! All the extras I was looking for on the s6 are stock on this car such as memory seats, iPod connection, phone prep, cd changer, rear camera...

It also looks a lot nicer than the audi and the BMW IMO. Can't believe I only found out about it yesterday!!

Reminds me of the Mazda 3 mps aero I used to own. Amazing hot hatch at time of launch but no one knew anything about them for years.

Thanks for the reply. This is now the car I am looking for in earnest and have already seen a nice one Birmingham. Will wait and be sure before pulling the trigger.

What do you think a reasonable price is from a dealer?

Stu

Ok. Prices seem to vary wildly though. What price should I be looking at?

Is there a lexus dealer or approved dealer in or near Chelmsford?

Stuart

I can see there are not many of these around but wondered what people have paid for ISF's of this age with 50k miles and under.

Looks like potentially as low as 17k to 23k.

Meguires gold leather feeder is ideal. Cleans the leather and ensures it maintains its natural oils. You NEED to make sure what ever you use it does not sap the natural oils form the leather or it will eventually crack and split.

Oh ok sounds good. Reliability is supposed to be great and good to hear that is the case.

Hi folks. I have been looking for a performance family car for some time now and having recently moved the time has come to buy one!

I was initially looking at a Porsche cayenne then moved to Audi S6 and BMW M5 and was set on one of those until someone mentioned the ISF. Never owned a lexus before but have been doing a lot of digging and the car looks superb!

Only thing that seems to put people off is the hard ride but that is the same with the S6 so not an issue for me.

I look forward to reading the forum and learning more about the car as I continue my research for a 2008 model.

Any hints or tips would be appreciated. Only questions I have are:

1. is there an approved dealer in or near Chelmsford for servicing?

2. Can you turn of the beep on the shifting?
