Glad to hear youre ok but Maneesh, youve gone and messed the pimp ride up properly this time,that looks like an expensive job bud-get that cheque book out!!

That mean im now in the back seat Raj :o

He told me you were in the boot matey :P

lol.i aint actually got a boot anymore.Now the rear seats and backs are out,its just one large void.You could just stretch yourself across the roof and hang on tight-just make sure someone is following me quite closely just incase.

Maneesh is comin on this trip now!!!!yeeehhhaaaa!!!!

Nice one?? :D

Think i might be walking there as my cars not going to be ready how its looking at the moment??

Dont try getting out of it now mate :o

dont worry about the car not being ready.You can get a lift with one of us.Im now taking Meaneesh,but im sure Lee or Stav will be happy to help.

Hi guys,

I dont oftern visit the RX forum so him to you all.

Im after a bit of help and advice please, my little sis is after buying a used RX300 which I know nothing about.

She has between 15-19k to spend and wants to know what she can get for her money.

Went to Lexus Woodford and saw a couple of SE's with MM these were 03/04 reg and were 16-17k with average miles, is this around right? Can we get newer or better spec with that budget?

She wants an 300 SE with MM in black and black leather, looking on the net these seem hard to find ,

Also, other that the obvious, is there anything we should look out for?

Common faults, cambelts etc

Thanks

Paul

Hi Paul,hows it going bud?My old man has the old shape RX300 on an 02 plate and an RX350 on an 56 plate.I dont know much about the newer shape RX300 but from what ive seen,there are lots of SE cars in her budget(even at the lower end of her budget).I know the black colour is not as common as the silver cars-so it may be harder to find one,but there are still a few.Is she looking for one with warranty?id imagine that would be quite an important thing on an RX.Just looking at autotrader and PH there are a few low 30k mileage cars with MM at around £17-18k in her colour-but they are from indies not Lexus.If i were her,id hold out for one from Lexus with a warranty-especially as her budget is healthy and flexible.

I'm coming back at 16.40

Dave at 15.40

and Gord at 14.00 so its up to you mate. Prob try and move anyway.

Stav

Cheers Stav :) Do you know if Lee or Raj have booked any times as yet??

guys i was going to book my train last weekend for the 2:00 train back,however thinking about it logically,im not gonna be in peak physical condition for the drive back so early in the morning.So im going to come back at the same time as Stav,so ill book mine at 16:40 too.

ok i'll do the same, so at least it gives you time to recover a little

lol.I texted Lee and he says he is is also booking up tomorrow,and may book the 16:20 too

In all honesty I couldn't care less. Let's face it, if I can hear the music being played at my funeral, someone has made a BIIIIIIIIG mistake!!!

we have two Auto SE IS200s ,the first is an X reg with a leather knob and one is an 02 plate with a shiny knob.I didnt realise it was optional tho.

I know what you mean Anees.Im looking for lighter bits for my supercharged M3.Ive seen the bootlid im after in 2/3 different materials and the part manufactured in FRP seems to be the cheapest, every time.The price differences are so vast that it does make me wonder what the quality of these parts actually are.

this is a pic of the frp bit.It looks identical to the real thing,but im just wondering if its gonna be cheap and nasty,if you knwo what i mean.The above part is £349-the real thing sells for £1100.

Herd of James during the week, lexus are going to repair the gearbox under warranty B) well donre mate :D

nice one James-well done

Mark my words around the track this car will be quicker than RS4, M3 and the Merc no doubt, Especially with those Brakes, Gearbox and Electronic Gizmo’s

think you need to take a reality check

Is the car all ready then fella?

Stav

Hi Stav.The car is ready now,but is still with Simpsons and will be filmed next saturday at their premises,where we M3 owners are having a mini meet.Ill update my supercharger thread once ive got the vids on youtube.Hopefully after that it just needs a cage and a wrap and all will be complete.

There is an addition to the trip, a friend of mine is coming (I know...I actually do have a friend away from LOC)

His name is Milo & he drives a Black BMW 330 Coupe, he is booked on the same Sea France Ferry 11.00am departure :D

I can't wait for this trip.

should be a great trip.I better book the train sharpish

we have the new 320d coupe,fully loaded and its fantastic.I dislike diesels in general,however this car is amazingly progressive and very fun to drive as well as being a very good looking car.

that is one very impressive ring time.I wonder what will happen when zee germans find out?
