I call her "Else".

Till end 2002 test engineer at engine & transmission testing Ford of Germany.

Since 2003 early retired and enjoying my Lexus.

Breitling are among the only watchmakers that still make their own movements along with ROlex, Zenith, Patek Phillipe etc. Omega, Tag etc, source theirs from a Hong Kong based company.

In all Breitling watches ETA movements were installed.

Do'nt buy a Breitling, you will pay approxm. 30% of the price only for the brand.

Other companies like Omega, Longines, Sinn etc offer the same quality to a lower price.

The clockworks of the mechanical watches are almost all made by the same company, the ETA group in Switzerland.

As far as I know only Rolex, Zenith and Glashütte install their own clockworks.

Many thanks.

They should work then. You need to check the part numbers on your disc, they should be slightly lower numbers, e.g. 86271-24120 & 86271-70V310A.

I've checked the part numbers on my disc and they are equal to the numbers you have mentioned.

I will try to get the DVD on Ebay, if I can't get it then I will come back to your offer.

Is the disc you want to sell the 2004/2005 version and what are your price suggestions?

are there part numbers printed on the disc?

@ Colin

Now I've got the number which is printed on the Navi-DVD:

86271-24123 86271-70V313

I hope this information will make it easier for you to identify the DVD.

Many thanks in advance.

It is probably a TNS300 disc which will not work in the Lexus.

Many thanks Colin for your quick reply.

@ Colin

The DVD is offered on eBay and I have sent an email to the seller to get the part number and I will ask again when I've got an answer.

Many thanks.

I have the opportunity to buy the following Navi DVD:

TOYOTA Navigations DVD 2004-2005 Ver.1

My car is a MY2002 IS200 with the DVD Navi system, the current version of my Navi DVD is from 2001.

My question to the forum is: Will the a.m. Navi DVD work in my system?

Quick answers will be appreciated.

Many thanks in advance.

Unfortunately your IS300 has the wrong colour (red). Most customers prefer black, silver or dark blue metalic IS models.

I use IE since 8 years, now IE6, and never had problems with.

A nice little car, but i think it won't show the same reliability of the Lexus.

I would like to stick one on my wife's BMW Z3 2,8.

I have solved the problem: the new URL for the European Lexus Owner Club Forum is as follows: http://lexusownersclub.com/euro/forums/

Since end of March I can get access only to an "empty" website of the "European Lexus Owners Club Forum" (http://euro.lexusownersclub.com/forums/). There is no possibility to reach the Forum contributions.

Is anyone aware what has happened to this site?

It would be very helpfull if anyone could give some information about this problem.

Many thanks in advance.
