Cheers for the welcome guys :)

Looking to view/pick up next weekend all being well :) just a shame the car is at the other end of the country lol

It seems to have some nice mods as well... coilovers, supra LSD and a blitz exhaust system...

Anything to look out for on these? She's done just over 100k miles bit I'm guessing that's just run in for a lexus V8?

Thanks,

Mark

Ok, it's due a cambelt change... how much should I budget for this?

On the LS430 and LS400 the cost of the cambelt seems to vary from £250-£500 depending where its done. I wouldn't have it done without replacing the water pump, and for that I was quoted £500 in total by a Lexus specialist. And as Brendan said, standard unleaded is fine.

Got a quote of £299 Inc vat from main dealer. They say water pump and tensioner don't need doing unless they are faulty... sound right? Quite surprised they didn't try and push the extra work for more money... a refreshing change :)

Is that £500 for both cambelt and water pump? Not each? :)

My quote was for the water pump and cambelt kit. If I intended to keep the car I would have the pump done at the same time. Others may disagree!

Just like to say a big thank you to everyone on here in helping me purchase my first Lexus :)

Picked it up on the weekend and so far so good (bar a couple of issues)

Here's a quick pic

So here's to some happy years of Lexus motoring.

Thanks again,

Mark
