  6. Hi all, new to these forums so please dont flame me for being lazy and not looking for the answers, i did have a look but there is just so much information on these forums it was a tad scarey!! Basically im currently looking at a: Lexus IS 200 W Reg (2000) 6 Speed Manual Colour: Silver Miles: 40,000 1 Prev Owner Location: Scotland Paint: Excelent Condition Interior: Excelent Condition Engine: Excelent Condition (as far as i can tell) Alloy's: Horrificly Bad Condition Asking Price: £8495 I am seeking general advice on a few areas, my No1 worry is the condition of the alloys, the corrosion on them is beyond pathetic for this standard of car, i have called around and spoken to an Alloy Wheel Specialist in scotland, they gave me the following advice: Do you think this is good advice? i would hate to think im buying someone elses problems. I will be having a check on the under side of the car for signs of a tow bar as another reason the wheels are so bad could be due to boat towing, in and out or the north sea, if this is the case the corrosion would be much deeper than just the aloys... There are 2 scratches on the paint work that i would want to be repaired, one on the front bumber about 6" long, but only a surface scratch, the other is about 3" long on the rear bumper and is a deep one, right to the metal. The interior is spotless, the leather isnt cracked very much, and the material isnt worn at all (yes i was surprised at this aswell) Do you think this is good value? i would be trying to get the dealer down to at least £8000 anyway, as i looks like i will have to spend roughly £300-£350 on the car to fix its faults, but it all hinges in me selling own car first (unfortunately) All general advice/feedback would be greatly appreciated :)
