  4. Hi Have a 2005 rx300 and would like some LED number plate , interior and reverse lights ! Now can one of you kind people point me to the right ones and who sells them please , pretty please :-) Cheers Jon
  5. Fair point about reliability , but all cars/makes have some issues of some sort so it's nowt to worry about :-) Jon
  6. Hi all Don't know if this has been covered before , I have a 2005 rx300 with 85k under her belts, bought a month ago from the auction , car drives the biz , took her to mates (dave) for full service inc auto box oil change , plugs etc while up on ramps , noticed a fine mist of oil on and around the rear diff , Dave phoned his mate at Lexus chester for the oil seal and was told it's such a common failing that they always stock new diffs . The seal fails , oil disappears , diff heats up and bang :-( so check yours soooon . Seal is only just over a tenner plus fitting . Jon .
  7. Hi all Just had my rx300 back from F1 alloys in chester , Cheshire ! Cracking job , tyres off , acid bath repair and paint ! £300 for all wheels , hubs and calipers painted , even lent me a car :-) Jon
  8. Hi Tried the AClex , twice , and there's no one in :-( Jon

  11. Hi After 2003 onwards lexus rx300 wheel centres for the standard 18" wheels . 4 needed and must be mint/like new Cheers Jon
  12. Hi The dealer is owned by one man called mark Mitchell (he also has skoda and Mazda on the same site) he is a bit of a religious family man who believes that family's should spend at least one day together , brave move as it must cost him business , well in fact it did , it cost him the mitsi dealership years ago , may have been a blessing as he then got lexus Jon
  13. Cheers for replys , it's always good to get opinions from real users . Your right a test drive is the only way to find out , the trouble is my local dealer , lexus Chester (although spot on , as used before for service etc) are shut on Sundays and that's the only day my missus and myself can get there in daylight . Jon
  14. Hi pondering at a is250 , but being a farther of a 18 month old , my worry is boot space for a pram etc , having a missus who collects buggys like new shoes . we have a quinny buzz and a maclaren stroller type . how do all you cope ? is it a easy fit ? I know i need to try for fit , but i thought i would ask first . is there enough room for the kid in the back ? Jon ps - Daft question is there isofix connectors in the back (car i would look at would be a early one 55 plate up)
  15. Hi Nice one , whats the going rate for discs and pads + what about the tyres , is it best to put on OE or are there better options ? to be fair the car will be well treated and not used hard for 95% of its life as missus is the main user , so grip on the max is not as important as it is for some . Cheers jon
  16. Cheers , as stated , pretty much bullit proof for a high performance motor . Me like !!! Jon
  17. Hi all . Having been a lexus owner (on and off) for the last 7/8 years , i am thinking about a is-f (second hand) simple question .... what do i look for ? squinted through the forum , but sometimes its best to ask . car will be under 40k mileage and will be one of the first ones in the country Cheers Jon
  18. Lexus Derby for me ...... Never been/spoke to/dealt with , so dunno where it came from ;)
  19. Hi all . Scuff plate now gone (Thanks Bryan) just the load liner to go ..... any takers ? Jon
  20. Would you be able to post the bumper protector at all? Could do with one, but have to weigh up that the trip to Chester and back would probably make going to the local dealer more cost effective. Thanks Bryan Hi Bryan . Yes could post . Extra £8 would cover the pain of wrapping and trying to post . If you want it pm me and i will give you my paypal account and try to post this week . Let me know soon please . jon .
  21. Hi . Wheel and roof bars now sold . just rear scuff plate and load liner left ......... jon .
  22. Hi . With you on the new shape X5 , but its a bit lacking in extras and also my insurance (10 months of policy still to go) would not touch it unless it had some form of tracking device . Jon .
