Just Bought A Mk1 Gs300

[Goochie]

Just bought a GS300 which turned out to be well below what I would have spent. One owner from new, history includes every receipt and piece of paperwork related to the car - The guy even went to a Lexus dealer when the screenwash needed topping up.

One recent bill is for over £2000 for suspension arms and bushes.

Original purchase invoice for a cash sale of £31k is there too along with a "Welcome CD" from Lexus which is a mixture of classical music and verbal introductions to the car and the "Lexus Experience"

Has been SORN since October when he decided he was too old to drive it anymore. Its covered just 13 miles since it's last MOT where new discs and pads were fitted all round.

The interior needs a bit of a clean and the outside needs a clay and polish but even the alloys look brand new - Not bad for a 15 year old car, particularly one with over 180k on the clock.

Two faults are 1) The electric aerial stops 2 inches from the bottom 2) Both dash needles need attention (one flickers the is dull).

Collecting it next week

Hi mate

Had mine for a few months now although had a few different Lexus previously. 1997 Mk1 unfortunately with about seven owners although low(ish) mileage. Its a great feeling getting into a Lexus every time. You will enjoy it
