Just got a quote from the specialist vehicle deparment of Adrian flux, filled in the form on the internet so its' only provisional. Fully comp quote with all the mods on my car came in at 1099, this is stunning compared to the other quotes that I've had.

My insurance is up for renewal on November 10th, does anoyone know of a good company that I can change too, I'm currently with Admiral but the premiums went up a silly amount with the Supercharger etc, didn't worry too much since it was only for a couple of months. I'm looking to change in time for the 10th, spoken to a couple of firms so far and the quotes are ok although not great, does anyone have a small specialist firm that they could recommend or any company in general that might be competitive?

I don't suppose anyone is too concerned but .... If you use these 'handy' remote / auto start features while your car is on a public highway, you're breaking the law Could this also be a bit dangerous if you leave it in gear? Or does it not let you start if the car is in gear?

i think that 15's would make the car look a bit odd, the 17's are already too small for the arches, switching to smaller wheels would make it look very empty.

Lexus did exactly the same shortly after I got my IS200 (bought it in December 99)

Traffic was pretty bad all the way up the M3, even worse when I came out of the services, not sure what was going on but didn't manage more than 65 most of the way, even down to 40 - 50 at times. Have you ordered the supercharger yet??

going to take some tomorrow at the Bealieu meet (not the induction kit though)
-
The IS already has a Thatcham cat 1 alarm so why not get a tracking system (e.g. Tracker) instead?
-
yep, definately going tomorrow

Give it a go at the club meetings this weekend and next!

Mr Darlings wonderful solution to gridlock
dark_is200 replied to DaveEllen's topic in Lexus General Discussions
It always shocks me how bad our transport infrastructure is compared to other countries. I spent 3 months living in Singapore and it was so easy to get around, public transport was cheap, clean and reliable,traffic was never a problem - car ownership costs are a bit steep though! The UK has bad roads, too much traffic, dirty, smelly, expensive, unsafe and unreliable public transport and the government does not have a clue on how to fix the problems. -
looks good, performance is definately much much better. congrats.

Transition from IS200 to ?????
dark_is200 replied to blackmagic's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club
Going to keep the IS200 for a while (its three years old in 2 months) and see how much performance can be had from it. Might look at the new Supra and Skyline when they are available, also interested in the Lamborghini "Small Car" and Ferrari 360 replacement when they come along. -
