........the other 27 didn't give a toss. This is the LS I spoke about a few weeks back. I finally found it this morning,so took a few pics. To save you looking,it's got a couple of months tax,but MOT ran out last December!. I don't expect it to be there long,so if you want to make an offer on her do it now. Quite how he moves it around with the O/S/R wheel at that angle I don't know.

My baby in background of pic 5. I also like the fact that he has different size wheels on each side of the front and rear axles. I bet it drives lovely.

That is truly shocking! I imagine it would need "a bit of work" for an mot! 

[Farqui]

Gawd, what a mess.

Thanks for the pic's tho.

How do you get matching dents in both rear side panels.  Did it just escape the local salvage yard grabber?

Is the side exhaust both sides?

Different, I'll say that!

At last MOT in November 2015,she had 124k on the clock. And she only covered 3500 (three thousand five hundred) miles between 2005 and 2011,that's about 11 miles per week between those years. Clock change possibly?.

Insured but no MOT.

 

Does it have a military exemption perhaps?

It's had a rear shunt by the looks giving it the matching dents.

I thought insurance is void with no MOT ( if it's required )

Ah, Rear-wheel steering! Just like Honda Prelude......not really.

[thatfatbloke]

Unbelievably she was MOT'd  (straight through) and taxed in June this year. MOT was done in East London, when the car still lives in Eastbourne. Hmmmm......................

[Odysseus]

Maybe it was used for a Gumball or similar type rally?

You know the sort, club together with a few mates, buy an inexpensive car and tour round Europe over 10 days with other like minded people and their inexpensive cars.

To be honest I think a Lexus would be a brilliant car in which to do such a trip, but it’s always jarring to see a car so insensitively “customised” in an otherwise normal setting.

I was an active member of a Mercedes forum when Top Gear turned an S Class into Anne Hathaway’s cottage and you should have seen the outrage. :)
