Todays The Day

[Kremmen]

I have been watching the topics recently with interest without having the goods.

Finally at 12:00 today I pick up my IS200 SE and get rid of my ugly 2 year old Citroen C5 3.0i V6.

At last ! :D

Congrats on your new purchase!

Morning chaps :)

Photo's added - and yes it's fine thanks.

Need to get used to the slightly harder suspension than the Citroen which I expected and the throttle pedal is very sensitive but apart from that its just the job.

Checked all the tyre pressures this morning and they were :

Rear Nearside - 36

Front Nearside - 41

Front Offside - 35

Rear Offside - 33

Hmmm............ (Fairly accurate digital gauge)

I have set them all to 34 - is that OK ?

Congratulations on the purchase, I bet you have this silly :D grin every time you drive it.

I run mine at 34PSI and when I took it in for its 1st service the garage reset them all to 32 PSI.

These should have been checked and set to 32 PSI during the PDI at the dealership.

Where did you purchase the car from?

Dont forget to check the spare.

Congratulations!!! Enjoy the ride! :D

Guildford, although I can't fault the whole buying experience.

Those pressures were probably just an oversight, I checked them after the car had stood overnight so they were all definately 'cold'.

Well done Krem!

Now Go GOLD!!

Hi Kremmen, welcome! Good to see me banging on about Lexus on the 4car forum has finally paid off!! :)

Hi

I haven't been there for ages - got a bit bored.

This Lex certainly beats the old C5 into touch, no rattles and the whole thing feels a lot tighter :)

I've got it all cleaned up (to my standard) and my first real journey will be tomorrow (Monday 12th) and they have forecast heavy gales and a storm - typical :(

The only cleaning problem I have found is trying to get behind the rear speakers and high level brake light - any tips ?
