My New Is200

[lex2005]

I have just purchased a Lexus is200 BLACK 2000 V reg

1) The brake feels a bit spongy, is this normal, the pads were changed about a year ago and the car only has 45k mileage.

2) Any things to look out for the last service was done in Jan, how much are normal services?

3) How hard is it to lower the car, looked at some springs, what sort of cost is involved including fiting?

4) How much are sports grills? and is anyone selling one.

5) Where can i get the colour code for the car, need to get a spray can or touch up kit, can i buy it from Halfords??

Thanks any advice is appreciated

1) Cant say i noticed......so must feel ok in mine.

2)service prices do tend to change from dealer to dealer, and depend on what serice is being done.

3)Not hard to lower, and depend on what type of springs you are after.

4)sport grill will set you back mor ethan you think, but if you go gold you can get one cheaper (as well as saving money elswhere). If you do a search you will find out the price for sport grille, and service costs.

Sorry not selling mine just yet :)

Welcome to the LOC :)

Your paint code should be on the passenger side door cill.

I wouldn't bother with Halfords for the paint, unless your very lucky they struggle to know their arse from their elbow.

Lexus do a can or a touch up stick. The Can (two of them if you have metalic) is about 8.99 and will definatly be the right colour for your car :)
