If a convoy of 20 lexus cars are used for the getaway do you think they might guess where to look?! Ah. Good point Batman. Perhaps I should leave the criminal genius to someone else :saint:

Congratulations on the baby and the car! Welcome to the club.

Well, it's obvious isn't it? They obviously need a service (:o)..... With the monthly issues, there is a cure. Instead of running them on the cheap chocolate, you need the more expensive stuff. Think the Optimax equivalent of chocolate and you're half way there.... :tumble:

Not this week, sorry, at my desk working (er, well I would be if I wasn't looking at the site. A-hem!)

Same here....anyone joined after getting flyers on their cars in Ascot, Windsor or Bracknell :?:

For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules when dealing with women. Finally, this merit/demerit guide will help you to understand just how it works. Remember, in the world of romance, one single rule applies: Make the woman happy. Do something she likes, and you get points. Do something she dislikes and points are subtracted. You don't get any points for doing something she expects. Sorry,that's the way the game is played. Here is a guide to the points system: SIMPLE DUTIES You make the bed..............................................+1 You make the bed, but forget to add the decorative pillows......................... 0 You throw the bedspread over rumpled sheets..........................................-1 You leave the toilet seat up.................................................-5 You replace the toilet paper roll when it is empty........................................... 0 When the toilet paper roll is barren, you resort to Kleenex..........................-1 When the Kleenex runs out you use the next bathroom...............................-2 You go out to buy her extra-light panty liners with wings...........................+5 in the snow...................................+8 but return with beer .....................-5 and no liners ...............................-25 You check out a suspicious noise at night.............................................. 0 You check out a suspicious noise and it is nothing........................................... 0 You check out a suspicious noise and it is something.....................................+5 You pummel it with a six iron..........+10 It's her cat....................................-40 AT THE PARTY You stay by her side the entire party......................... 0 You stay by her side for a while, then leave to chat with a work colleague......-2 Named Tiffany.................................................-4 Tiffany is a dancer...........................................-10 With breast implants..........................................-18 HER BIRTHDAY You remember her birthday..................................... 0 You buy a card and flowers.................................... 0 You take her out to dinner.................................... 0 You take her out to dinner and it's not a pub.................+1 Okay, it is a pub.............................................-2 And it's all-you-can-eat night................................-3 It's a pub, and it's all-you-can-eat night....................-10 A NIGHT OUT WITH THE BOYS Go with a mate................................................ 0 The mate is happily married...................................+1 The mate is single............................................-7 Not for long - it's his Stag Night ..... .....................-10 He has a liking for Kings Cross establishments................-50 A NIGHT OUT WITH HER You take her to a movie.......................................+2 You take her to a movie she likes.............................+4 You take her to a movie you hate..............................+6 You take her to a movie you like..............................-2 It's called Death Cop III.....................................-3 Which features Cyborgs that eat humans........................-9 You lied and said it was a foreign film about orphans.........-15 YOUR PHYSIQUE You develop a noticeable beer gut...........................-15 You develop a noticeable beer gut gut; exercise to get rid of it..+10 You develop a noticeable beer gut and resort to loose jeans and baggy Hawaiian shirts.............................................-30 You say, it doesn't matter, she has one too................-800 THE BIG QUESTION She asks, Does this dress make me look fat?

And ClaireG waves back :smilegrin:

Hello children of the 80's. Read this, it will take you back... Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo Friendship bracelets were ties that couldn't be broken. You know all the words to "Ice Ice Baby". You wanted to be on "Jim'll Fix It". You can remember what Michael Jackson looked like before he had plastic surgery. You had one of those T-shirts that changed colour with heat (Global Hypercolour). You know the profound meaning of "Wax on, Wax off". You were upset when She-ra, Princess of Power and He-Man got cancelled. You remember Madonna in her cone stage outfit. You knew "The Artist" when he was humbly called "Prince." You wore fluorescent-neon clothing... (if you can call it clothing!) You could break dance (ok, you wished you could) You remember when Amiga was a state of the art video game system. You remember M.C. Hammer. You can still sing the rap to "Fresh Prince of Bel Air".... You can remember when it was Jazzy Jeff and The fresh Prince and NOT just plain Will Smith! You own any cassettes. You carried your lunch to school in a Gremlins, ALF or ET lunchbox. You have ever pondered on why Smurfette was the ONLY female smurf. My Little Pony, Gummy Bears and Transformers are familiar to you. You had a Swatch Watch. You believed that "By the power of Greyskull, you HAD the power!" Big wheels and BMX's were the way to go. With your pink (or blue) portable tape player, you sang to Kylie and Jason! You owned Polly Pocket or Micro Machines. You made Ken fall in love with Barbie. Partying "like it's 1999" seemed SO far away. You knew that Transformers were "more than meets the eye". You wore a banana clip at some point during your youth. You were led to believe that in the year 2000 we'd all be living in space. You know what leg warmers are and probably had a pair. You wore biker shorts underneath a short skirt and felt stylish. You recorded songs off the radio with your boom box. You wore those wide, colourful shoelaces. You never questioned why the A-Team were always imprisoned in places that had sufficient tools to build an armoured tank. Dungeons & Dragons was your favourite programme. You said "bright light, bright light" in a strange high-pitched voice. You fell out with friends during heated arguments about the relative merits of Matt & Luke. Cerise pink, electric blue and banana yellow have ever featured in your wardrobe or make-up collection. You did the top toggle of your coat up around your neck without having your arms in the sleeves, and you knew you looked like a superhero. Your new winter coat was best used to demonstrate that your wings were like a shield of steel. You still remember when the A-ha video was the pinnacle of modern technology and you can still sing all the words. Your best party dress was either a ra-ra or puff-ball skirt. You remember watching a house inhabited by a jester, a pantomime horse and a woman who sneezed, and thinking that this was perfectly normal. You tried to convince your Dad to fit a strip of red lights on the front of a Capri so it looked like KITT. You had more than 10 sweets in a 10p mix-up. You hid behind the sofa whenever you heard the word "Exterminate!". Girls - You owned a pair of Pixie boots, generally worn with leg warmers. Boys - You owned a pair of pale grey slip-ons, generally worn with white towelling socks. Ooh, you could crush a grape! You held a chicken in the air or stuck a deckchair up your nose. You wore legwarmers & tried to do the splits while jumping in the air while singing you were going to live forever. Your best mate had a Soda Stream at home and you were jealous. Any elderly Scottish lady sounds like Supergran You remember playing British Bulldog, When 'Computer' Tennis, Pac-Man and Donkey-Kong ruled You remember hearing the tune then running out to buy an ice cream cone on a warm summer night - 99's, screwballs or a cider lolly. Water balloons were the ultimate weapon. Important decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-mo."

superb mate - superb. Warning to anybody reading this in work though - the Tourettaphone way prove hazardous to your employment ....so my boss tells me :(

:wow::wow:

And why would we flame you petal?! I'm not a huge fan of BMW primarily because I'm not fussed on the looks or the fact you have to pay so much more for extras. That said, they are seen as prestigious cars by some, and German cars tend to be built fairly solidly. ....and I nearly got given one as a company car a little while ago. If that had happened, maybe I'd be posting on a BMW site slating Lexus..... NAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :tumble::tumble:

It should make a difference - the greater the burn rate, the better the performance of the fuel, and the more mileage you'll get. I believe Optimax is the only 98ron petrol available, all other unleaded is 97ron. I've done some experimenting with my IS - Supermarket petrol (ugh), I get about 320 out of a tank. Unleaded, I get about 340 out of a tank and Optimax, I've just got 380 miles out of a rank. The overall performance feels faster too.

Can't make it this time guys n' gals - got our little ones' Christening that day. See you at Gaydon though!

Don't like mayo on your chips? That IS wierd Don't see many red IS200s on the road, so go for it! Certainly get you noticed :smilegrin:

Well, everyone's entitled to their own opinion. I see the positive in this article - our cars stay more exclusive! Bet the BMW 3 series don't wave at each other (or they do and get arm ache from seeing so many). There again, no one waves back at me when I wave at other Lexus'ssssss :(

:lol:
