I have a 2010 ISF that I’m considering selling due to lack of use, but it’s difficult valuing it due to it being such a small market. 2010, USB, 89k miles, full history, new brakes and tyres, 11months MOT, Tein coilovers, H&S exhaust and loads of little jobs done on it. Ones for sale on Autotrader don’t seem to be selling at all?

Out of interest, how much did they charge to do the work?

Yeah I’ve had this on a previous M140i which was when the front wheels would “push” and skip, which was cured with an alignment. This problem is like the whole rear axle is skipping or juddering until you straighten up and then it’s fine again. Does it when pulling away with more than 50% steering lock.

@FishShapedCar Did you ever get to the bottom of this? I have the same on my 2010 ISF with LSD. I changed the rear diff oil to Fuchs as recommended by Opie Oils, fine for 4-5 months and now started doing it. I thought it might be handbrake/rear callipers sticking but they’ve all been checked and ok. I might swap out the diff oil to genuine Lexus and see if that changes things. I’ve also noticed it does it more after a long drive, like something’s heating up/expanding and causing it. Is yours the same?

I think it looks superb, those rear arches and that ducktail sit perfectly. BMW's B58 engine is a peach as well, 500bhp with simple bolt ons and a remap. Prefer the way it looks compared to the MK4 as well, far less boat looking.

I was just about to post this exact topic myself! 😂 The prices of them seems to vary wildly and the market has really dried up over the last few months. Hope you manage to find something.

OP did you go and have a look at this car?

With the extended warranty, does the car need to have full Lexus history to qualify for it? Thanks

Thanks for that! If it's the silver one on auto trader with 86k on it then that's one that has caught my eye. Like you say, your kind of limited due to how few there are for sale.

New user here! Looking at getting my first V8 and the ISF is top of my list. I'm swaying towards a higher mileage car so I can actually use it and not worry about putting too many miles on it, especially with the reliability reputation. Is there anything in particular I should look out for when looking at 100k+ mile cars? Other than the usual non model specific stuff. Is there a big service at 100k and how much is this normally? Thanks
