Quick Hello :)

[sheerdrop]

Hi Just picked up my 2000 lexus is200, she is a bit of an old girl and done a few miles, but still a delight to drive :) Been wanting to own one for a while now so finally got round to it.

Been having a look round the site and there seems to be some really good info.

Anyways Hello to you all :D

[IHgs300]

Hello and welcome to LOC.

Hi and welcome to the LOC! I hope you have a great time here. I think the older Lexus cars are the best ones! Enjoy yours.

[The-Acre]

Welcome and enjoy!

Hello and welcome to the LOC.

Have you not got any snow up in Scotland? Mine had 3" on it this morning :D

[Stuart Aspey]

I got my 54 is200 a week ago and am amazed at the quality. The older ones look just as good too. Ignore the mileage. as long as its been serviced regularily, you should have no problems

Welcome to the site. Any issues, give us a shout.

[Venator]

Welcome :D.

[sheerdrop]

Hey thanks for making me welcome, had my first incident tonight with the car when I locked the (only) keys in the boot!!!!!! :( Quick call to the AA and they came out and opened the car in a surprisingly quick time so all sorted!! Felt like a right tw*t :D

[Raymond.]

Welcome along!

Nice colour choice.... ;)

[Stuart Aspey]

Oh dear. It happens. Don't worry.

[sheerdrop]

God hate asking questions already, but if I got key cut without the remote bit, would it at least open the drivers door in this kind of emergency (or feck up lol)

[IHgs300]

Yes it would work, i did exactly the same thing when i first bought mine,not just you...LOL.

[sheerdrop]

YAY :D I am not the only one :D Thanks for making me feel slightly better IanS200 :D

[sheerdrop]

Steve we have not had any snow in Glasgow :(

[steve2006]

It's a good idea to get another key cut even without the electronic bit so at least you can open the door. If you have the master key you can also program another one from that and have the blade cut.

[IHgs300]

everyone makes mistakes mate, i didnt have AA or rac, was going to drill door lock and then one of sons "friends" got in it with 2 bits of copper wire, one to hook keys with and other to press button on fob.

You've been lucky we have had quite a bit down here, passed around Glasgow a few weeks ago coming back from Alexandria.

Definite trip to the locksmiths then :) I "think" it is the master key I have so have been looking into the programming of keys, looks like lots of stamping on the pedals if what I am reading is correct!

[IHgs300]

If its the 3 button one you have it SHOULD be the master, good luck with the "pedal dance" also involves some door switch flicking if i remember right.
