Think you need advice on what to look for in a ls400. Here's a few things you can do yourself.

I take it you're looking at a MK1 - MK3 model.

1) HPi Check

2) Bottom of the Cats where they join exhaust and look for Rust/Rot on underside and rear sub frame. (If any can be expensive and over the value of the car to fix)

3) All buttons works/ Windows/ Locks and dash lights etc..

4) Had at least one water pump change with timing belt within the last few years.(Saves you loads in not doing it as the cost can be also over the value of the car)

5) Check the body work for fresh paint and dents

6) Leaking power steering pump.

7) Test drive and check out handling breaking etc.

8) Use your own judgement. If you have doubts then walk away.

Baz.
