Hi guys and gals,

I have now sold me car and will be picking up the new motor on Saturday :D . Although it is not a Lexus I shall pop back in on a regular basis.

Supercharher, Prolex Manifold, Super Drager and various other bits are still available. If you are interested, please give me a call.

Regards,

Mark

What new motor did you go for ?

[Sipey]

A Vauxhall Monaro CV8 which is to be equipped with a full Borla exhaust system. It is Blue and registeretd April 2004. It is 100 miles away so I can't wait for the back

Someone down our gym got / had one of them (I ain't seen it for a while) - it looks f**king awsome !! I wondered what the f**k it was for a while, until I seen them going mental in it on Top Gear.

The majority of my travels are via motorways and at 80mph it ticks over at under 2,000rpm making it more economical than the supercharged IS200.

Besides - I can claim back my milage through work so am OK on that front. It is tyres and brake pads that may prove to be an expense

Have to check out what this monaro is..

Ahh now i remember its the australian built muscle car. Definitely not a common site on our roads. Nice choice although people will say its a vauxhall after all.

Was the s/c'd lex that bad on fuel in comparison?

5.7litres of v8 will hurt the pocket on fuel...

[Adie]

Bit like the new Calibra .............

Great cars , drove my mates one in Saudi(badged a chevy lumina ss over there but part of the GM group), solid as a rock at 150MPH and a pussycat to drive .

The majority of my travels are via motorways and at 80mph it ticks over at under 2,000rpm making it more economical than the supercharged IS200.

Be careful though.

Them big V8's are so addictive and it's REALLY hard not to keep flooring it and grinning like a buffoon and using up all your petrol.

Basically i'm well jealous You'll love it

What sort of cash are you wanting for the SuperCharger?

Well, picked it up at 2:00pm and got in an hor ago AND CAN'T STOP SMILING :D

According to the onboard compter, optimum speed for mpg is 125mph. At 100mph the car is ticking over at 2,250 revs. I put 30 quids worth of fuel in at Basildon and drove to maidenhead. Then drove to Slough and back to Maidenhead. Then from Maidenhead to Reading and back to Maidenhead and I still have 70 miles left out of that 30 quid so quite pleased with that. Might go back out again in a minute :D
