My ISF is due it's 6yr/60k service and I'm having the usual price arguments with most of the dealerships in the county.

The customer service at Lexus Woodford is excellent and I've been quoted £695 which I'm more than happy with.

None of my local dealerships will get anywhere close to that, they're all quoting £780 - £800 best (15%). I find it unbelievable that the 'fixed' price of £895 can fluctuate so much!

I've found Lexus on the whole are shocking when it comes to dealerships and customer service. I had a bad run in with Lexus Nottingham last year when they serviced the car and rendered it undrivable! They overfilled the sump and it wouldn't start.

We own flagship models of supposably the brand with the best service and I feel like they are conning me at every available option.

I'll probably book it into a local Dealership as I can't justify driving to the capital and hanging around for a day. It beggars belief. I spoke to Lexus UK and the block there didn't get my point. I'm at a disadvantage living 2.5hrs away from Woodford!!

I've been toying with the idea of selling my ISF for a few months. This is the final straw for me and it'll be going once it's had it's service. Just had new pads and rear tyres fitted too.

I also drive an A6 and my other half has an A3, Audi care is second to none over Lexus. It's such a shame =[

Fantastic pics!

You'll never lose the smile either! =]

Congratulations! Another red one =]

Best car I've ever owned, you won't be disappointed!

One of the other car forums I'm a member of set up a register to try and locate as many limited edition cars as possible. It worked quite well and we managed to track roughly 400 of the 500 made, whether still on the road or scrapped etc. I thought it would be a good idea to try this with the IS F? We can see how many are in a specific area which may help to arrange meets in the future.

I'll start. The next person can copy my entry into their next post and so on.

Hi Josh

Pm received. Send me your email and I'll forward some pics over

ahhhahahaha Just read that back!

It wasn't me that got married, crikey that's a bit of a scary thought!

A good friend asked if she could use the car. Was great fun as the car got even more attention than usual!

I used the IS F as a wedding car for a good friend of mine a few weeks back. It was a great experience! I'll upload a few more pics when the bride has publicised them.

Cheers for the comments guys! =]

Was hoping to make Bluewater on Monday but unfortunately work has got in the way! =[

Hope to see everyone at the next one.

Took advantage of the lovely weather on Sunday and washed the cars =]

I don't think I'll ever get tired of the ISF!

Great to meet everyone today, a cracking group of cars and a better bunch of people! Looking forward to the next one =]

Andy

Really looking forward to meeting everyone tomorrow, I'll be with you all around midday =]

Weather looks good too! 18 degrees woohoo!!

April Meet is Long Eaton, Nottingham.

Not sure of the Bluewater meet?

I'll be there though if i'm free.

I'd heard rumours of a Silver IS F Around the Nottingham area and can confirm it does exist as I saw it the other day! Does it belong to anyone on the forum?

It was pretty much driving along the road where I live! (Plains Road, Mapperley) I'm hoping it's local so I can catch it next time =]

I'm going to the April meet Peter if you're going to be there? Hopefully we'll have some good weather by then and it'll be clean! =]

Another Red one! =]

You won't be disappointed! The wait certainly is a killer!! Enjoy it mate.

Andy

I asked the same question a few months ago. Would love to know the figures!

It seems the white, grey & black ones are the most common as there are usually a few available on eBay or autotrader at any one time.

I spent the best part of 2 years looking for a red one, I'm yet to see another for sale or on the road.

I've heard rumours of a silver one around the North Nottingham area but yet to come across it.

Anyone else on the forum own a red one out of interest?

Interesting figures! I'll be trying harder next time I fill up.

My 27.4 was a mixture of traffic driving for the first 25 miles, then motorway (Nottingham to reading and back) for the remainder. I'm sure low 30s are easily obtainable on a very steady run! (It's hard not to boot it once in a while though!!)

Also use Tesco momentum 99

Hi Craig

Good luck with your search! Hold off till the right one comes along and you won't look back =]

I'm also in Nottingham (North East) be good to meet you at the April meet in long Eaton if you can make it?

I know we don't really own these cars for mpg figures but it'll be interesting to know what people can get on a run!

I've managed 27.4mpg on a full tank, motorway driving primarily with a few blips coming off slip roads round the roundabouts!

Can anyone beat it?!?

Thanks for the nice comments! It does look the bomb when clean. I've spent years holding off for one in Mesa Red, I'd love to find out how many there are in this colour =]

Mine had a good clean over the weekend. It's now ditched again what with this naff weather =[

Put my name down =] Be rude not to really seeing as it's just round the corner!

I've wanted the IS F ever since it came out in 2008. I did consider the M5 E60 but thought they were too common (or at least they are around the midlands, I see one daily) plus the reliability issues. I've always had a thing for rare exciting cars so it was a no brainer for me really =]

I'm yet to see another on the road!

Here's my 2008 (58) IS F. I spent years searching for a Mesa Red one!

Love the car, everything I imagined it to be.

Thanks for the warm welcome!

Look forward to the next meet =]
