Well if you have an IS 220 Sport you will know this already as its in the instruction book. Or the salesman would have set them up for you :P

Thanks Chris we worked our nuts off to get it looking nice and shiny. :winky: *** don't we just love to pick holes just because its on the wrong forum Steve!!!

At last had some time to polish the new baby.

No problems on my 250 Sport, which is probably why i didn't buy a diesel.

Boring or what?

Now i know the Yanks are colour blind

Ok GJD, we went for the Black interior which actually has grey above the doors, we test drove one with a beige interior and when the sun shone it lit up the inside like a sunburst and you coundn't much out of the rear view mirror. Also Beige will be difficult to keep clean. IMHO

No competition.. Black looks stunning when clean but oh does it get dirty quickly! So really only one choice. Haven't worked out how to change avator yet!

My Motorola V545 would only down-load one entry at a time to the car. Then i had to resort the directory as it had slit names alphabetically. e.g. And david ursula. Now all i need is someone to ring me to see if it works!

Had an MPS for a short test drive recently Chris, but didn't like it at all. Talk about rattle your teeth! But then I was comparing it with a Lexus. So go Golf :D

Hi Ian welcome to the club. Just changed from IS200 to IS250 Sport with Superguard myself. Also have o lot of Autoglym products and some Maguires. Last car was Diamonbrited so dont know which to use. Car seems to have a greasy covering on it at the moment. Tried the Superguard stufff today but not impressed so may go back to the Diamondbright cleaner and enhancer.

Well if you have driven a Sport with auto buy that one because it will be the rarest one on the planet!. Go for the IS200SE or IS200Sport, stay away form the auto

Absolutely stunning when the sun shines. They now have a red IS250 in the showroom, coincedence or what?

OK the secrets out. Meet my new baby! :D

Sorry Chris, of course, you are top of my list for thanks for all the help you gave us over the years. Not to mention the expert way you navigated us to Gayden all those many years ago. :P Got to dash off the Telford United now, cheers Chris, catch you soon.

Just a bit of humour on my birthday lads! Well Steve its either an IS250 Sport or an IS250 Sport, let you know tomorrow. :D

After six years of utter reliability my IS200SE has got to go. If I carry on like this, think of all the Lexus mechanics that will be out of a job. No work to do, sitting there twiddling their thumbs, looking longingly out of the window just praying for someone to breakdown. In fact I have yet to meet a Lexus mechanic as the nice people from Lexus Wolverhampton pick up the car for its annual service and deliver it back, on time, all clean and say “see you next year”. And don’t mention oil consumption! Every year after its service I get a litre of top up oil, a little cardboard funnel and a pair of plastic gloves left in the foot well for me. If this doesn’t stop I will have to build a bigger garage. I already have five un-opened bottles and have run out of room. No wonder there is an oil crisis, it’s all in my garage. It’s not that I don’t know where the oil goes in my baby (I looked it up in the manual) it’s just that none comes out! I did have to get the original alloys changed, but who hasn’t? Then Lexus lull you into a false sense of security by saying nice things to you, like – sorry sir when can we change them for you, do you want a courtesy car? But I’m no fool I’ve seen other manufacturers, and Lexus aren’t on the same planet! So goodbye to the stunning shape, the comfortable drive, the gleaming metallic paint, the green-eyed neighbours, all those strange club meetings looking under as many bonnets as you can, having intellectual conversations with Matt and Steve ( on second thoughts ………….). Oh yes did I mention the green-eyed neighbours?

Best i got was Shropshire to Inverness on a tank full, almost 420 miles. Did Anglesey over easter for a whole week on a tank, about 390 miles including the A53.

Hi and welcome from the other end of the M54.

I tried all the variations of diesel and petrol in auto and manual that were available and INHO found the IS250 Sport to be to my liking and more important to she who must be obeyed!!

Just think about why you drive a rear wheel drive car and then ask how many rearwheel drive vans there are? I drive aTransit Connect and other members of B T drive Vivaros' and they get stuck on damp grass, or the least bit of mud and wheel spin from any road junctin because all the weight is over the rear wheels and the drive is on the front!

OK Rikos, its just that i go to AFC Telford with a big "Reds" fan and if Man U lose he does nothing but barrack me all match, but when Liverpool lose you don't hear or see him. Strange that :P

Welcome to the club, sorry to hear about "The Mighty Reds", didn't Man U beat you recently?

My cousin from Kent says all four of her tyres are worn very bady on the inside only! Nearly bald after 4000 miles, but dealer recons all is OK. Still trying to get het to join the club :D

Hi Ozzie welcome to the club. Had my baby for 5 years now and still enjoy a run out in her. Its well worth joining "GOLD" just for the bag of goodies you get, but also the discounts from many dealers. Do knot know what causes the condesation, but someone here will. :D
