Have you watched the video clip... in it he states that "we've done some research and we suspect it to be a 98".... why would you need to research the age of the car? If you bought it legally you should have all the documents showing you the year of manufacture.
I suspect this could be another one of those cars that gets pulled over by the police and has the chasis number checked only to discover its on an international list of nicked cars....

Just browsing ebay and I came across a 1992 imported Celsior 1st registered in the UK in 2003 but on a 53 plate I thought like mine ( envy here!) that imports had to have the reg of the year they were made ( in my case 1994 so I get an L reg) but not only that this guy is promoting the fact it is a 53 plate Lexus but you cannot put a private plate on a car to make it appear newer than it is so how did this one get past the DVLA?
