  1. Budget is up to £20k ish and the perfect car would be Blue with Black Leather but I understand that's a rare combination, next best would be grey, then silver. Facelift would be nice but I probably need to drive both to see if it's worth it. Not at the stage of travelling hundreds of miles just yet until I'm 100% that the ISF is for me.
  2. OK - I had noticed a variety of gradual changes across cars, the dash and headlights seem to have been some of the later/rarer updates - nice of Lexus to keep things simple. I just need to find one localish to me for a test drive as I've only ever seen 1 ISF and not driven one yet, had hoped to see the one at Lexus Leicester but that seems to have gone now.
  3. @Mark G For future reference in my search what the wrong bits?
  4. Now you mention it it does look low... Not really after a modified one, been there and done that.
  5. Interesting, I thought I'd been keeping an eye on recent listings but must have missed that one. I might go and have a look as it's not a million miles away - god knows what she is like in real life though! Her reply to my question about it being due a service imminently was odd: She definitely seems to have swallowed a dictionary and maybe a thesaurus to go with it!
  6. I guess if you write that much you'll want get the most use out of it!
  7. It's a bit special isn't it, hard work to read and actually find the useful info amongst the bumf. I asked and the last two services are from random garages so probably just oil and filters I'd assume. How big is the 60k service?
  8. Still got my eye out for an ISF and this one appeared over Christmas - seems to be the same crazy shouty seller that had one on a few weeks back. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2011-LEXUS-IS-F-5-0-V8-AUTO-417-BHP-MAJOR-FACELIFT-MODEL-NAV-DVD-DAB/142643060991?hash=item21363060ff:g:TAUAAOSwVtZaPZbE Anyway, looks good in the pictures and is a facelift which is ideally what I'd want. Anyone know anything about the car? The last two services were non Lexus which is a bit of a concern and also I'd assume it's on the verge of the big 60K service too?
  9. Looking again at this one https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201706206617863?logcode=visc&fromSA=true It seems to have the Blue steering wheel section but the old headlights and instruments... Does that mean it would have the LSD and revised suspension or is there a way to tell for sure without jacking it up and spinning a back wheel...
  10. When I first spotted it they had it up for £19695... whether that was the first price or not I don't know as I've only been looking a few weeks...
  11. Ouch! Was hoping a replacement wheel would be a couple of hundred at most. I can't see the dealer replacing unless they are really desperate for a sale... There's an is250 on eBay with ISF wheels, almost as cheap to get that...
  12. Thanks for the reply. I know what you mean about test drives but there's nothing very local to me so if I'm travelling I may as well look at one that ticks as many boxes as possible. I'm pretty impulsive on car purchases, especially if it involves a V8! Ideally I'd like a blue or grey one but that black one seems a good price for the mileage... Anything in particular to look out for apart from the usual tyres, brakes service history etc...
  13. How do you tell? Is it to do with the raised section on the spokes?
  14. Yeah, got confused with the one at Lexus Ipswich which is newer and has the big central rev counter.
