Why not go for a private sale? As long as you get the car checked over with a FULL RAC/AA test (£200 approx), which is more than the dealer rac/aa (basic check). You could shave at least £1000 off the price. Just a thought.

Pretty common for the 2 fronts to wear on the inside. Had 2 fronts put on mine last week, £115 Each. The tracking cost an extra £10 on top. (Car feels much better) If they are going to charge you for tracking then i wouldnt get it done at the dealer, unless the cost is reasonable. Any local tyre fitter will be able to adjust it for you.

Claire...........You are spoken for :winky: And all Figits posts have been printed to be presented to Mrs Mop, the next time i see her Hmmmm.....hwo else can i get...............

I happen to see this link for Pay as You Go Deals today, so might be worth a look MSN PAYG Page

You advertising me motor a little there Fidgit And I too have both front Electric seats, on a 2000 (Dec) IS200 And one of the later Audio units too.

Whenever i go to look at another car, i will look into importing. But it wont be for quite some time yet. Just mentioning it so you dont think your banging your head against a wall. :)

I can hide And if i did see you two......would Mrs Mop talk to me still

Well, I'd like to make it for Both, but prob can't So what are you all planning?...just so i can avoid most of you Especially Fidgit Jus Kiddin........about most of you

A couple of good points there guys

Well, as you can see its a Jungle out there and you are spoiled for choice. So here are my thoughts......... Go for a decent optical zoom, as you can do as much digital zoom as you want using your PC. Make sure that if you are planning on printing any of your pics, that you get a camera that can handle the size of print. (I.E. If your want to print an 8x10 photo, then a 2 mega pixel prob wont be enough) I was looking at a few when i bought mine, but there was a v good offer going for the Minolta 7i (half original price) so i went for it and i dont regret it. 5 Mega pixel 28 - 200 mm Zoom (35mm eq) Only thing i found that is a pain is when you take a pic on the highest resolution (15Meg file), it takes an age for the camera to store the pic on the memory. Reviews of the Minolta 7i

Happppy B-day

Watching breakfast TV the other day (Tuesday) and they did a piece on the Police checking window tints. (front windows) They also said it would be becoming a common thing that they will be looking at. (GIVE ME STRENGTH :shutit: )

Had a great day too....my fav has to be getting the car washed while we were all playing :winky: Managed the IS300, RX300 (both on and off road) and the SC430......then ran out of time...... Has to be the SC........fantastic drive........but i can see little point to having rear seats at all.....(but who needs them) Liked the IS300..nicer engine......but not as much fun as a manual......(Lexus...give us a manual version) RX........also amazing fun......but need to buy a farm first. Nice to see you there BTW Claire.

I did a poll round some friends and all of them preffered the normal wheels.........This and a complaint from the other half of them being gold (or at least look it in the ad)........ So ill hold out for a bit......and save some more cash. Much better BTW Fidgits :) Thanks for all input. Bobski

Ill have a go, but i cant go too high...............after the mortgage/car/bills......i dont have too much left nowadays

My attempt..........shoddy pic software though

And would they fit ok?......the studs should be fine.but not sure of the offset etc

Theres a set of 18" SC430 wheels going on ebay Link to Ad Anychance someone with a decent painshop type package could do the bis to see what they would look like on an IS (just to be nosey). :P Call it a challenge B)

Not enuff though m8

There should be a name for this illness.......Fidgititis He Just cant sit still

Yes it is..but for some reason.......we are reading it

Do you think Fidgit deserves his own :zee: ?? Should be a a lil blu Smilie on a ladder wid a shammy Or is that his cunning plan Matter of fact..i think i should have one for sussing the most cunning plan !
