You are all bad people I have heard that the quickest way to defrost a w/s is boiling water.

I'm maybe not explaining the problem properly. It's a fairly high milage car. When driving into low sun, it's hard to see properly, since the thousands of micro chips make it appear as if the screen has been sandblasted. Out of the sun there is almost perfect vision. That is why i doubt that the insurance will cover the cost of replacement. So what i'm really after is the cost of replacement outwith the insurance.

I am fully comp, and the screen will only cost £60 to replace. I just thought that it would have to be smashed before the insurance would kick in.

I'm not sure if it can be done on the insurance. It passed the mot recently. When driving into the low sun it's like the screen has been sandblasted. It makes it difficult to see properly. I'm with the RAC so i'll try their replacement centre and see what they say.

My LS400 has done 110k miles. The windscreen has the usual tiny wee chips that make driving into the sun a right pain. Now, I assume i can't get it replaced under insurance, so anyone know how much it will cost to get it replaced? Just rough prices to give me an idea before I phone around.

I can buy paint for the car, but can i buy the clear coat too?

I'm fairly sure it's 63k miles for the cambelt change. Which reminds me........

Well, i have to say that he did alot of work, and made me happy. 2 springs, 2 shocks, wheel alignment and labour. £480 quid. If i say it quickly, it don`t sound so much.

The manager made phone call after phone call to get me the best price. I`m not a Quick-Fit fan, but have to say this guy went above and beyond. He`ll probably get sacked soon :)

Front offside spring decided to go boing. ok, it broke. Had to drive quite a long distance before i could get it fixed. Went into Quick-Fit. The manager phoned around for ages but had to admit that the lexus (Edinburgh) was the only place to get them. Fair enough, £98 plus vat each. So i thought that having driven so long with that prob, i`d better get new shocks too. So lexus quoted £103 +vat per shock. The manager phoned around and got them for £53 each. I`ve always thought that dealers will rip you off, now i know. I have to say that I was very impressed with Quick-Fit.

95/N 109,000. Runs like a dream.

not me. it`s a wee bit out of my league. :)

The previous owner obviously didn`t care when washing. The result is the paintwork is full of swirls and scrapes. I`ve just started using carplax and carnaube. Is there anything else i can use to get rid of these or will they go away using the above?

Wow! Simply Wow!! Does it come in black?
