Hi Guys I'm looking to coming back into the Lexus fold (used to have a IS300 Sportcross and always regretted selling it) buy getting a 400h There are a few out there for sale 55 plates without the sat nav which are cheaper so i was wondering what spec these are and whats missing? Do they have parking sensors instead of camera assist etc. Thanks Si

Yeah its a Lexus IS 200 Sportscross, I have attached a picture Hi Mate See that is Evans Autos I got my IS300 Sportcross from there a while ago - & am about to sell it Its Black, just had wheels refurbed, near 85k, 2 ownders including me!
-
Hi mate - just rang to confirm the service price with Lexus Hatfield & surprise surprise its gone up £101 + brake fluid change at £90 - No doubt i would have been hit with it at payment time - wot a laugh.
-
Hi Guys - £55 sounds much tastier. Thanks chaps

Hi guys, I need to get a new battery for my IS300 sportcross & i've read on the forum that a dealer battery is a good one to go with because of fitting & size. Problem is my local dealer (Milton Keynes) wants £90.49 fitted - sounds expensive, or am i stuck with it. Any advice chaps? ps. got an 80,000 service quoted as £375 - sound ok? Cheers Sii
-
thanks guys. nice to see the beast still going strong Mr. M!

Hi chaps Can anyone suggest some brake pads for IS300? After getting the price from my dealer i wondered if i can get eithe A. better quality for the same price, or B. same quality saving on cash! Cheers Si

Update guys! Can't get roofrails for the sportcross from UK Lexus - tried 3 different dealers - no luck & no help!! Can get tem from the links previously posted - would cost, sit down, $900 including shipping to UK. They are genuine Lexus parts apparently too! Need that exchange rate to keep climbing!!!!!!
-
i would get the rack/bars from thule etc. but i want the rails first instead of clamping directly onto the roof.
-
I tried with Lexus Milton Keyes - they rekoned there were non available at all. Anyone know any helpful lexus dealers then? MK and Hatfield are near me - & don't even mention Hatfield they are useless at aftersales. I found this link for some - i'm waiting... hopefully for a reply on supplying them over to UK http://lexusparts.stores.yahoo.net/sporroofrail.html But any tips on a good dealer here would be a help guys! si
-
Interesting: that's what I'm after. So what happens if there's a Sportcross which has a gentle roll and needs these rails replacing I wonder? Tough luck i imagine - but good question.
-
Lexus used to do roof rails as an accessory for the sportcross - put them on, then attach roofbars to them. I was trying to get a pair for my sportcross at my last service but Lexus Milton Keynes said they can get them any more. I'm still desperate for a pair - if you have any luck finding them let me know mate! Si

Hi guys I've just been in touch with the Vias guys - who said they didn't sell internationally - then i did a search on here and found this post! Matt, count me in if you can get them to send to us in the UK. I've got an IS300 without the sat nav so the SoundLinQ (Model SLU) i think (hope!!!) would do me! Hope they go for it! Si

Cheers guys Anyone got any examples?

Hi Guys - i dunno if you can help me - or i'm just going mad!! I recently smacked into a few cones (dont ask ) in my IS300 sportcross - snapping off part of the front bumper skin and a few scratches here and there. I put it through insurance (protected no claims is a joy!!) and got Lexus Hatfield to do the work. Now i've got it back a little voice in my head says it looks different. Would there have been a different skin for a 51 sportcross, and they've fitted a 200 skin? Or maybe a face lift skin (if they did a face lift and that would be the only thing available) Cheers guys si (Vanilla IS300 Sportcross Astral Black)

Hi mike, I thought it might be pricey too, i liked the option to run dvd through the factory version though & syncing in with the stereo. Bugga! Thanks anyway bud Si
-
Thanks mike - i had a suspicion you might post! 3k jeeeesuz see what you mean. Still the way petrol is going!! Si

Hi guys Has anyone put an lpg conversion onto any IS200 or 300's? If so any good? Cheers Si
-
Hi Guys I have a IS300 Sportcross, an early one without sat nav. Have any of you heard of adding the factory sat nav & how much it costs, or if there are any decent alternative that could be housed in the dash like the factory version? Cheers Si
-
Thanks for the replys guys, specially Mr Morse & Fargo, nice to see what a couple of 300's can be like! So howz the mpg now with the incuction kit & extras? Cheers Si

Hi Guys, New to the forum - nice to find like minded Lex fans. I've recently bought a 300 sportcross & wondered if there are any chip upgrades that anyone knows about? I've read a few posts on here about the resistor conns on ebay so are there any other more legit ones? Cheers Si
