  1. No problem, good luck with the hunt. Being patient is the key 😁 thats the bit I struggled with!
  2. If folks are travelling I’d drop me a line first. 👍🏻
  3. Had a look at the above isf for sale on auto trader as it is local to me. nothing to do with me and I have no ties with the dealership. If anybody on the hunt would like info on condition then give me a shout. matt
  4. Hps intake pipe toms panel filter secondary cat delete, full system keeping standard tips usrs bushes uprated from pads wider mps4s tyres
  5. The rr racing usrs that I have came from the US courtesy of a very kind member on here. Might get the odd set come up on eBay. There are other offerings, I believe figs also do something. Not seen wear quite that bad I must admit. Have you had all the geometry checked / set up?
  6. Cant ask for any more than that. I have to admit I prefer that colour to the yellow.! Looks really good 👍🏻😎
  7. I leave mine in normal mode till I get three bars on the oil temp, then into sport and then manual. I leave the tc alone though 😳
  8. They only drop the oil from the sump, can’t get the oil out of the torque converter, and refill with whatever procedure they use. dont think it was part of the service schedule, service centre told me they advise a change at 100k or 10 years. cost me £145 which I was more than pleasantly surprised with !
  9. Had my gearbox oil changed last year when it went in for the recall. Think you’ll be surprised how cheap it was. mines only done 44k but wanted it for peace of mind.
  10. Always had a c63 or m5 in the back of my mind come change time, always seems like a good idea till I do a bit more homework, similar thoughts on a gtr, own it for a year or so and move on. think the Mercs look and sound great, don’t think I’d want one out of warranty. If your looking at a nearly new, weekend car then scratch that itch. You also mentioned the lc500. Between the two for me the lc wins hands down. Epic looks and sound with the reliability you’ve become used too 😎
  11. Had a good look round a white lc500 last week, fantastic looking car 👍🏻
  12. Welcome Nick, don’t think you’d go far wrong buying one, especially a forum members car. As the others have said the warranty is a fair price and gives piece of mind if the unexpected were to happen. the health check is pretty simple. I’ve got a few non standard bits on mine and the warranty was still offered.
  13. I believe the tack welds go and it eventually falls off. Always check mine when I wash the car.
  14. A few on here have suffered the same fate. Try and retrace your steps if you know when you lost it. Very expensive from Lexus. keep an eye on eBay or hopefully a member on here can help you out. last ditch effort is a Hayward and Scott Exhaust 😎👍
  15. 60k and 120k are the spark plug services, they are expensive at Lexus, a few of the lower mileage cars over six years old I looked at had been serviced but no plug change. Ask the dealer about warranty, they did a health check on mine before it was offered.
  16. Blo#dy hell, that’s a proper crash. Very lucky man indeed.
  17. Dropped in to a local Kent suoercars meet. Three maclarens, four Lamborghini's, usual array of mercs bm's and porche. Only one F car there though!
  18. Thought I’d dig up this old thread. after having a little play with an M140i, noticed a big blue Range Rover sitting up behind me. after a small blast up a quiet dual carraigeway, found that it was the Range Rover SVR, damn that can lift its skirt and get a move on. Noise was ear piercing but it certainly flew 😁
  19. Will check dates, would like to have a run out. 👍🏻
  20. There used to be a sticky with gsf specs but it’s gone now! 😎 good luck if you decide to take the plunge 👍🏻 Great looking cars
  21. I’ve not read that the rcf / gsf suffers the same issues as the Isf. I would imagine it could cause warranty issues for front suspension related problems. Glad I fitted them to mine though as it made a massive difference.
  22. Beautiful looking car. looks great in white
