Thanks for all of the input guys.  I think I’ll be sticking with the IS-F 😀

@Big Rat. Oh dear, I’ve seen videos of this car in London in that case.  How did you find out it was this one?  Do you know anymore of the history?

Walking into dealers and looking at new cars is dangerous, you never know what you will end up buying.....................................do you @Flytvr

That is true @Mark G, although it had to be blue 😀

Hi Jon, I'm in a similar situation to you but will wait a couple of months.. The Blue one in Coventry looks really nice with the blacked out chrome trim. Is it wrapped or painted?

I’m not sure if I’m honest.  Will find out when i visit this week.  I was just saying to Dav that I hadn’t planned on changing at the moment but this one caught my eye 😀

Don't forget, even if you like the RCF, you don't have to make the change yet. There isn't an abundance of LC500s on the market yet, but it will be interesting to see what happens to the RCF once the LC500 becomes more common.

True Dav.  I have been looking at them for a while and the right car has never come up.  The spec, colour and options on this one would have been how i would have chosen from new which is the only reason i have progressed this now.  I certainly wasn’t intended to change at the moment.  Still got to drive it yet 🤔

@Jon_B If it happens Jon be sorry to see you go, personally for those in the know about ‘F’ cars and you are obviously in that small select 😊 group it’s just natural progression.

Now if you find yourself jostling in the dealership with a northern bloke trying to part x his white is-F that’ll be @Warrington guy Dave 😂.

Remember if you do it..... pictures pictures 👍

Thanks buddy.  I will look out for Dave in that case 😀.  If it does happen i would still like to join you all on the next meet so you can have a good look then.

Good luck with the RCF and the sale Jon!!

 

Cheers Dav.  I must admit this is all with mixed emotions as the IS-F has been so much fun.  It will all come down to the test drive i guess 😀

Hi all,

I have been considering a change for some time now from my ISF to an RCF and have been following availability and prices closely.  It would seem that due to many owners upgrading to the LC 500 there are quite a few available and Lexus Coventry have a blue one currently that looks to be a nice car with all that i was looking for (ie blue, well its a bit more than that).  I have reserved it subject to test drive.  The reason for the post is just to say that if anybody knows anybody that is looking for a really nice ISF, then if all goes too plan this week, Coventry will have a lovely blue ISF (2010 with just over 30000 miles and a full Lexus service history) for sale shortly which is a cracking car and I would recommend to anybody.

Cheers,

Jon.

Big Rat

Sounds good Ratty.  Haven’t been able to use the car so much recently due to working away.  Hopefully all be done by this meet 😀

Hoping that I should be able to join you all on this one.  It’s been a while.

@Jon B Thanx for coming up matey, sorry couldn't stay around longer to talk, hopefully more opportunities as time goes on 👍

Big Rat

Yes sorry.  Originally I had hoped to bring my son but he couldn't come.  Had to get back to pick him up but will plan better next time.

Great to meet you all guys.  Fab line up of cars.  Looking forward to the next one :-)

I'll be there.  It will be great to meet you all 😀👍

Welcome to the forum Jon, do you use the IS-F as your daily driver or weekend toy?

Thank you.  It's a weekend toy really.  I do a fair few miles for work so the company car gets used for this unless I am going somewhere where I can enjoy the drive a little more 😀

Hello All,

I've just joined the forum so a big hello to you all.  I've had my IS-F for nearly a year now and its fab, great fun and amazing to drive.  Look forward to getting to know more of you going forward.  

Many thanks.

Cheers,

Jon.
