  1. Lol, I read that age comment as being directed at age of owner 😂....older first 🤪
  2. I actually wanted the Toyota pro-ace BUT we have 1000’s of vans, there VW’s or Transits, the carry weight is massively down with my Transit compared to my 11 plate one, Wanted a swb low roof, got mwb semi hi roof 🙄.......get on average 3 parking tickets in London weekly, now they’re moaning 🙄......got this one for another 4-1/2 years although they’re now talking about getting what I wanted
  3. I’m VERY tempted BUT not sure if I will be able to afford it, Outback is in having head gaskets done n the eldest daughter is 17 next week, but I’d be interested to know price IF I can, when are you looking at doing it?? H&S is only about 5 miles from me too
  4. 😂🤣😂......mines a company one, I’ve got a 67 plate VW transporter at the moment, had one back in 2001........it honestly hasn’t changed 😳.......
  5. Fair play 👍......word of advice, make sure the gearbox oil on that auto transit is changed regularly, I know a couple that have failed.....it’s NOT cheap. My 17 plate Transit is in under warranty already 😔
  6. Obviously the fuel pump differs from the ISF.......my question is why??.......I thought they would have shared most components from the ISF 🤪.....
  7. Yes......age is on my side but an ex-wife isn’t 😔........had to start again at 40.......I’m getting there,.......by the time I can afford an RCF it’ll have to be what I’m buried in 😂🤣😂.......maybe one day 🙏
  8. “Transit” 🤔......yet another “2 door” vehicle for the aging person, I hear the tail lift option is worth every penny 😉.......😂🤣😂
  9. Taken from the “RCF” options list 😂🤣😂🤣
  10. The ONLY reason ANY coupe is more inclined to be a “classic” in mainly due to the fact that they’re mainly owned by “OLD” people that need more access room for getting in and out,......you only need to look at those that are making the change to the RCF,......obviously only my opinion 😉......😂🤣😂🤣
  11. No, I’m one of the old duffers on here at 45 😔......had M3’s AMG’s previously, although the ISF is definitely the nicer place to be, a few Jags n Mercedes, bmw, Audi, but Lexus IS by far the marque for me 👍👍
  12. It’s got to be the Mesa Red IS-F 😉......like my old MK1 1300E in purple.....god I wish I still had that 🙄......I had a “samakand” coloured fiesta ghia X in 97 from new, least popular colour, infact a disconnected colour BUT got £500 more for it when PX due to a demand for the colour 😳......therefore there’s only one colour 😂🤣😂
  13. My first Lexus was indeed the IS200 for nearly 3 years, followed by an IS300 aero, then the IS250 se-l.......my favourite is still the IS300 although horrendous on fuel...26 on a run n 17/19 round town, the Subaru is in for head gasket set at the moment n the wife is using my trusty old stead the V70,.......which is fantastic BUT Diesel n fact that I drive into the London low emission zone it’s only time before this gets charged a fortune to pass, I bought a Kawasaki Z1000-sx October 16, what with the house extension taking time it’s done the grand total of 165 miles, so this will be the daily ride when the weather changes, I’m lucky that work is a private car park not accessible to the public and only parked next to by fellow work colleagues, I park WELL away from others if I find that I need to frequent the supermarket BUT in fairness I normally take the V70 or Outback, that uncertainty on parking never goes away, nor does the rear view mirror hoping the person behind stops 😳......they are great cars BUT also to be enjoyed and mine needs to get used a bit more 👍👍
  14. @ThebigC mines been out today to work, looks like she’s gonna be my daily driver until the weather changes n I can get the Z out the garage, the outback has been comondeared by the wife due to a job change, may possibly buy a small fiesta van or 208 for the work commute
  15. Charlie, if your on Facebook look up Deutschland F club,.....Roman Schapp is your man for anything you may want carbon etc......they have struck a deal with Lems for after market parts direct from Japan, also Ryo Aiba who is here in the uk BUT Japanese n regularly goes back, Paul
  16. Congratulations Charlie, I’m sure your be over the moon with your purchase for many years to come, she looks a lovely one too, hopefully all the colours can make the 10 year anniversary, all the best mate, Paul
  17. If it’s Coventry.......the last time I was there it cost me a fourtune, (came away with the F) if the wife knows there’s an LFA she probably won’t let me come 🙄.......🤣😂......as much notice on dates as possible please as it’s around “Sandyballs” trip and lads bike trip to the Black Forest...... hopefully I’m in 👍👍👍
  18. For what it’s worth, my uncle has a 2004 XK with 19k from new, he loves it....obviously doesn’t use it much either, just a sunny weekend car, my sister best friend has the XKR......from new, about 50k and it’s been a complete money pit, been told to get rid as it’s a car that once it starts to fail it keeps on failing, I’ve driven the F type R and found it to lift on heavy acceleration, to the point of letting off, I was in twisty lane territory of which I know very well, i don’t feel the need to lift off with the ISF but didn’t have the same confidence in the jag, only thing I really enjoyed was the sound, I definitely wouldn’t be looking at one as a replacement
  19. Yep, the rat 🐀 is right 🙄.....😂🤣😂.....
  20. I’m starting to wonder if it’s me that only works here 🤔......the Rat 🐀 is correct as usual 😂🤣😂
  21. I have an obsession with things being equal, here’s my 4 tip car n bike 😳
  22. My mum had a rear quarter replaced by “Lexus authorised repairers”.......3 times it went back, she was at the end of life with cancer n just accepted the car in the end as it was becoming a joke, DONT use them, look for a “lifetime repair” guarantee repairer, they will be cheaper and a lot better.
  23. Lol, get wrapped in that n kiss your car goodbye 😂🤣.......looks VERY expensive to maintain 😉
  24. Phone the dealer, they will tell u which auction, BUT auction is the ONLY purchase with ZERO warranty or comeback,......dealers have to by law warranty their cars, no such thing as a tradesale anymore even if signing to say so, so a dealer will have never sell at auction money BUT will tell u where.......most auctions are online 🏎🏎🏎
