Do Not Sell My Personal Information Jump to content


Recommended Posts

Not sure if anyone's into BMW's here but just got this at a very reasonable price,already got the full drivetrain package to swap it into M3 evolution spec with a 43000 mile engine! I'll be working on it most Sundays so can see it being a long project,I've got a thing for fast saloon cars and estates so this fits in with the ISF perfectly.

Yes, Garage envy here too.  And as someone with the need of an estate car I lament the lack of a more modern Lexus estate for when my old IS 300 Sportcross starts to become high maintenance. That said over the last 12 months its cost £0 maintenance and very minimal depreciation so fingers crossed.

I love estates always Chucking something to transport somewere or other, I've also got an E46 330d running 300bhp and a forester xt which I'm using at the mo untill it sells.

And a Lincoln Continental Limo for Saturday evenings out when an estate car just isn't enough.  Well why not  :yes:

That's for my business but I do go out in it occasionally to test the pub crawls out before I offer them for sale got to be done 👍

Love it. Started track days with an E36 compact 2.5 swap, moved that on but always loved an E36 and estates so this is lovely. Have a 3.0H6 Legacy Wagon sat next to the ISF now

Not sure how far away u are but “Westfield” in Rayleigh are excellent, they are Lexus specialist and are fully equipped, when asked about my services by Lexus Woodford when I quoted “Westfield” they just nodded and said they’d leave me be.......probably about half the price, maybe worth a call and visit🤔

@Northern isf so what was the mistake you made. Anything we need to know to avoid doing the same.
