Mr Vlad

Some very interesting reading there Red. Went on to read about an almost full install with 3 amps and a superb fitting 2 speaker sub box. Them there yanks don't arf go OTT sometimes lol.

Hi Alex. Well you've done what a lot of diesel owners do. What kind of driving do you do? Short trips or long ones? Hopefully the fuel filter change will cure the problem.

Well Adam I'd suggest either once a fortnight take your car for a 50 mile run with the occasional 'Italian tune'. To me you are strangling your car and probably coking it up. I also suggest you use E5, if you're not already, and I find adding a dose of Millers petrol ecomax helps a lot. I've been using it in all my cars for decades. My journeys are short like yours but I take my is250 for a blast once a week to clear the cobwebs and its fun also lol.

Where did you get that info from Red? If that is the case where either system amp has a high pass filter of 40Hz then any subwoofer can be fitted.

How often are your long runs Adam? What is a long run for you in your car? What was your car getting in mpg before the cold spell?

Blimey what a coincidence from the Telegraph story to the story that the founder and CEO of Cazoo is stepping down and going to close some outlets and staff.

I knew you'd like that video I posted Linas. That one you posted just brilliant. That should reach some places and have a positive effect hopefully.

is this the one Phil? Interesting nonetheless

Wish I'd have seen this video months ago but what a corker. Enjoy.

This is a very interesting video. It's contradictory to other videos on hydrogen. What do you think?

Can you put up a link to that Phil?

Thanks for your input Colin with you having the UX300E. Your input I see as valuable. As for the range figures of the Volvo yes it's the WLTP that matters so my likkul mistake I suppose. Oh yes Car WOW do some very good videos if actually illegal. Law states if you drive to a destination knowingly you're going to run out of 'juice' you can be prosecuted. But what they do is fun and factual.

I've just watched this video with great interest. What do you think?

Hi Ash and welcome to the best Lexus forum there is. An excellent choice the is300h. I take it its accident damaged? Get yourself in the gen 3 IS section of the forum. There you'll find the answers to your questions etc. Used parts are out there. Some parts I suggest use Lexus Parts Direct.

Yes BritishVolt going bang, sorry for the pun, and all because the government said the investment infrastructure wasn't up to scratch. That was an excellent example of how we're better off in our petrol/diesel cars. And shame on Volvo claiming 55-60 more range than actual?

Very much so Colin. I read a similar article and current owners are well miffed as they've lost thousands in their cars. Seems to me he's more into crypto currency than cars.

You must be relatively young Linas. She was junior public health minister responsible for the salmonella in eggs scandal in the late 80's. She was forced to resign a few weeks or so later. I remember she was on TV with her daughter at home almost forcing her to eat toasted bread which had mould on it saying it was safe to eat. Now does that tell you something about her!

OMG John you ain't arf knocked the nail square on the head. That woman is Edwina Curry and yes stupid enough to be a politician even the minister for health I think.

Nicely put Malcome. Edinburgh does Indeed have a lot and I mean a lot of buses to the extent they get in the way of us delivery drivers who waste a lot of time waiting for them to move. I hate delivering in Edinburgh because of those pesky buses and when it's summer and those tour buses come out OMG what a headache. And yes there are a disproportionate amount of supermarket in a small area.

Some ruddy excellent posts lately and I thank you all for that. I've been watching all kinds of YouTube videos (nothing else to do whilst on sick waiting for my rib to heal fully) and a word starting to crop up is Dystopian. Nazi and Communist cropping up too. I'm seeing a correlation between the pushing forward the use of EV'S and what's going on in Oxford with limitations on where and when you can go in Your car. That's been mentioned somewhere here I'm quite sure. There's quite a good number of really clever and experienced folk on here of which I'm a million miles away from those in cleverness but I'm seeing sensible folk falling for the jibberish they're being told on TV and in the newspapers and Internet. I saw today on a factual program that GM have fallen behind in EV conversion because they can't get the staff to work in their battery making facility. One wonders if other motor manufacturers are suffering with one thing or another and keeping shtum.

He's not been on this forum since 2011.

Hi Han and welcome to Lexus ownership and the best Lexus forum there is. You car looks really good. The face-lift mk3 is a really good looking car and in Takumi spec just that bit better. As for how it looks compared to the f-sport I suggest look in auto trader. The only visible differences are a couple of badges and different wheels. Get yourself into the gen 3 IS section and in there you'll find very knowledgeable owners only happy to help.

oh Scotty Kilmer has struck the nail on the head absolutely bang on. Which one was which John? Was it when it was 2 talking or when it became 6.

Oh yes Linas that Edwina Curry is something else indeed. What a self centred numpty she is and always has been even when she was in government. Oh yes she don't half get some perks and back handers. Loathsome woman.

and here's another excellent video with the Fabulous Lois. She's superb.
