  1. Go gold, and chris s can help you get all the bits you want :D you have to get painted yourself :D ← gord Im trying to but am having probs signing up.I have e-mailed the address given a few days ago but have had no response
  2. A few questions peeps... Where have you all found the cheapest places to buy these kits? And do they 'lower' the body much when there on? Can you request them to be provided already painted? Im loving the aero kit and the bits Scarface has on his,TTE,and TRD, i am into subtle but stylish :)
  3. Im with you there Bobski,i love the colour i have. :winky: So they just modified the blue as the years went on then :) I have to say i picked the car up yesterday afternoon and drove from Sheffield to Newcastle and it was great,love the cruise control,felt weird but great
  4. Just read about a third,Montrose Blue,lol I am doing a search now for fear of getting a lashing for being lazy :mat: :winky: A picture comparison would be good,side by side to see the difference B)
  5. Hello peeps Another typical newbie question coming,one i didn't think a search would find an answer to(waits to be corrected,lol) but... I am picking up a 'Royal Sapphire Blue' IS200 today and wanted to know what the difference was between this and 'Strathcaron Blue'(spelling ). Cheers all :winky:
  6. Sorry if this is in the wrong section but i can't find a 'technical problems' area,unless i have missed it of course,it might be a good suggestion to have one. Anyway..... When i post a reply,i don't always get an 'e-mail notification',i have checked my profile and the box is ticked for an immediate response. Any ideas anyone
  7. Thats brilliant,i so want one !!
  8. Hi everyone.I have already said hello when i joined but i thought i would tell you a bit more. My name is Justin,i am 31 and have been married to Heather for 9 years,together for 13.We have 2 rugrats,Chloe(7) and Sophie(3) and i work for Sainsburys as a nightshift manager in my local store in West Monkseaton,North Tyneside(or on the coast if you know the area!!) I have only been driving for four and a half years but have had 7 cars already. Ford Ka-1st car Picasso-stupid looking easter egg,bought because of second child on way,felt 70 when driving it!! Mondeo 2lt zetec-enjoyed this,good mover but wanted a badge Lexus IS200se-Got the badge,didn't like the gearbox and scared of running costs and snow driving with rear wheel drive,and sold it after 6 months:angry: 2 Ford Focus's-bought 1 each for me and wife,moddified mine,looked great but craved for the Lexus brand again :) Lexus IS200seAuto-Notice the auto bit!!back where i belong for a long time i hope :D So,there you go!! Justin :winky:
  9. What happens if i pay my £25 for the year and Newcastle don't do discount.I am not planning on any performance or cosmetic mods and wont benefit from discounts in these areas. I have tried to sign up incidentally but am having bother,E-mail sent yesterday regarding this
  10. I have just paid £350 to 'More than' for myself and my wife on the IS200 we are picking up on tuesday .I used the following to look at 50 companies for me http://www.insuresupermarket.com/motor/def...car+insurance&x I am 31 and only drove for 4.5 years,my wife hasn't even been driving for 1 year yet.I couldn't beleive the price!!that was with no clames protected and legal cover aswell!!
  11. Hi everyone and thanks for the welcome back.I noticed a few said welcome back to the brand,not the club or forums.Thats what its about eh :P Anyway my question is if i go gold will i get a discount on the 110k service that i will need to do when i get my car?I have been given a price from Newcastle of £190 for an intermediate,obviously without any discount if applicable.Any ideas anyone
  12. Thanks for the offer mate but i am commited to this one now,8k was over my budget,and most of all im very happy with it.I had a platnum ice last time and wanted the blue this time.The fact that it had parking sensors and had just been owner by a dealership meaning it is pristine,were a big bonus I quite like the gold badging aswell :winky:
  13. It is a private purchase,however the person im getting it off bought it from Lexus in Sheffield 7 months ago and needs to sell to fund his wedding and expensive honeymoon :winky: So it still has 5 months left,to which i believe is transferable :D
  14. Well i have just drove for nearly 6 hours today to have a look at and place my deposit on the lexus im buying.Hopefully i will be the owner by the beginning of next week,i can't wait. It's a Sapphire blue Is200se auto with rear spoiler and parking sensors on a v plate.It has 108k on the clock and flsh,and best of all it has 5 months warranty left,all for £7100 I am one happy but tired bunny !! Can't get the pics to work so here are the url's http://pictures.autotrader.co.uk/ATD_web/s...ia?id=190823532 http://pictures.autotrader.co.uk/ATD_web/s...ia?id=190823545 http://pictures.autotrader.co.uk/ATD_web/s...ia?id=190823555
  15. Thanks for the welcome everyone I have spent most of the day trawling through sites to find what i want. :duh: Anyone know of any good sites to find a used Lexus other than Autotrader,Exchange&Mart or Fish4 ? I have put my other Foci on a 7 day auction on E-Bay today (if anyone wants to have a peep!!) Hope i can get a buyer soon so i don't feel like a visitor to this club for long
  16. Alright Iain :winky: I have a Zetec 1.6 with EGR bodykit and TSW Relex 17's,and a standard LX for the school run Yes im in FFOC,not active though,not a good experience in there for me,but i am quite into FOC,friendly bunch there B) I am coming back because it can't be more expensive to run 1 luxury exec car than 2 Foci and i pass them regularly round my way and think.....Damn i wish i had one again. I love the brand,the styling,the equipment levels,they are everything B*W wish to be and the JD Power surveys back this up year after year.I can't wait to get back in one,i have my eye on one but haven't rang up for it yet as knowing my luck i'll not sell the Foci quick enough and it will go Here it is http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/WWW/cars_...rch_full=SEARCH If you need any convincing pop into your local Lexus dealership and compare the service to your local Ford dealer. I love my Foci and drive it with pride but there is no comparison in the brands B)
  17. Hey Mr Morse !! I love Nottingham,have family living in Arnold and have just returned from a short break there....But its 160 miles away lol,was just wondering if there was anything happening more locally ;-)
  18. Hi Peeps!!! My name is Justin and i am looking to buy an IS200SE Auto within the next few weeks.I am currently in the process of selling both my Ford Focus's to fund this and am looking forward to driving a luxury brand again. I had an IS200 SE,(and was a member of this club at the time)18 months ago and foolishly sold it,and have regreted it for most of that time. Soooo im on the look out for a nice example with 50-60k on the clock for around the 7-8k price range,they are out there,just waiting to sell my Foci's first,1 down 1 to go :) Look forward to chipping in when i can...is there any meets in the North East? Justin :winky:
