Another Year Of Trouble Free Motoring

[ChrisM]

Just received good news that my September 1998 registered DHP passed the MOT without any problems or advisory remarks.

Only had to replace 2 rear tyres earlier this month, and also the rear headlight height adjustment bar between electrical component and trailing arm. Oh yes replaced a broken aerial mast, but let Lexus Newcastle fit replacement wiper rubbers. I didn't realise that the wipers were a different size between nearside and offside even after 5 years of ownership.

I am currently working away from my home base, and have managed to fix the 2 items using info from the Internet, eBay and the standard Lexus Ls400 tool kit.

Can recommend MOT testing station and garage I used here in Newcastle.

Just need to get my 17" alloys refurbed now

ChrisM, there's a refurber in Sunderland just off the A1231, and to a lesser extent, a new business in CT Tyres yard in Birtley. I'm in Washington and have no connection to these.

Thanks will check them out. Washington, nearby every day, I must be the only LS400 in the Nissan factory car park !!!

Brilliant yet another year of carefree luxuary motoring. Mike

Possibly the only LS in the North East!!!!...although I did see an early LS in the Freeman car park a few weeks ago. There was a MK4 and 430 for sale from 2 dealers recently and a MK3 in Old Washington Village but he sold that a couple of years ago. There's a MK2 GS300 exactly the same as mine, same colour,same year and only one digit difference on the reg. no. in Springwell Village
