Hi

I've just looked at a very nice LS400 Series iv '98. S reg with 75k on the clock and full lexus service history. The drive went well...bit softer ( incl seats !) than I'm used to ...power was nice and all the buttons etc seem to work. price £9,800. But I hesitated as there were a few chips on the paintwork and it looks like there was a bit of an effort to touch an inch long one up on the leading edge of the bonnet. The other issue were the alloys........bit tatty and as such let it down a bit. I suspect it would cost a few bob to have them refurbed?

Just after some advice or am i bing too picky?

Cheers

If you have a private sale knock em down to 9k for refurbs, If it is from a dealer get them to fix all the blemishes as part of the deal. :D

Buy it! They are fantastic cars. At 75K its just about run in and with the full history its got to be worth an AA check.
