  1. They seem to always like the boot popping up at the push of a button...
  2. My neice wants a lexus. Her boyfriend has a car and she's been telling him that her uncle's got a lexus and it's got nicer alloys than his, and that she really likes the rear lights and the big exhaust... Poor guy...:D
  3. A Lexus at 18 - they must pay well at GCHQ!
  4. ...oh and sometimes the boot opens on mine while its parked out on the street - but thats down to my 2 yr old daughter getting hold of the keys! :D [Edited on 3-4-2002 by javadude]
  5. I usually lock it while I drive to work in Slough. One day I think it unlocked when I stopped the engine. Not sure though - I might have just caught the button on the door without realising it. It's never happened again and I've not had it lock by itself.
  6. once got my car (not a lexus) broken into twice in the same month. both times they didn't manage to get the stereo out - so they gained nothing and I got left with the damage (also a neighbour hit the car and our flat got burgled in the same month. it was in Hull. We moved to Reading and our insurance went up - it being a high risk area and we've had no probs in 8 years..! insurance... )
  7. That's rough. At least it wasn't your lexus though...
  8. Hey I like those wheels. They're...
  9. Dunno about lexus but my vauxhall's lasted 6 years ok. It only needed replacing when I had a leak. (Gas with dye to find leak, plus fix, plus more gas = £500!)
  10. You'd have thought that Lexus would realise they need a manual version of the IS300 to sell it here. When will they wake up?
  11. Maybe, but in the UK the government gets far more - about 85% of the price is tax.
  12. The Banana Splits - they drive like I do! :o
  13. I figured that as depreciation is low for lexus there should be no problem with the market value dropping below what I owed on the car so I didn't bother.
  14. A black GS300 parked near my house in Reading at the weekend so I stuck a (feeble) card on it with the URL. Are you here yet? If so Hi! I like your wheels BTW.
  15. At least the fuel tank should last 10 years+ My old vauxhall cavalier's rusted through in 4 years. Ah vauxhall - such quality ;)
  16. He said something like boring in relation to the handling of his "ultimate driving machine" - he said the lexus handles better and is quicker, especially on the motorway with the six-speed box.
  17. Putting stickers on my car gives me the screaming heeby jeebies - a cling one I could just about cope with...I'll wait for now! Thanks.
  18. No surprise but... A colleague crashed his company car - a BMW 318i - so he's got the pool car - an IS200 SE -until his is fixed. "Lovely car" he said. He prefers it to the beemer. When I asked him how long it'll take to get his car fixed he said "Who cares!"
  19. Are they sticky or cling ones? If sticky front or back?
  20. oh and ejector seat and rocket launcher and those stilt things so you can go over the cars in front like in wacky racers....
  21. 17 inch alloys, leather electric seats, sunroof, headlight washers and heated windscreen. :D
  22. kno wot you mean - it was a bit of a shock the first time - thought I'd broken something. Now I try to change up just short of the rev limit. I did once change down to 3rd instead of 5th on the motorway...:o The car didn't seem to like that!
  23. I can't resist - I do it all the time! The car feels like it's made to be driven hard. I just hope lexus engineering will hold it all together!
  24. Yes - it was David Loyes that I dealt with too. When I've been into the dealers I've been dressed casual with my kids climbing over the seats and playing with the water cooler and I still get treated like I'm a valued customer even though I don't feel like I fit the luxury make image. The customer service is on a completely different planet to Vauxhall - I had 3 cavaliers before.
