Also i asked the guy about the armrest and said he got it from the USA and he has the invoice for the parts.

is it just me or the car a bit too good for example there are some on eBay and autotrader with very little spec but very similar prices

he also mentioned that the sat nav does screen flicker a bit and is common on these IS's

should this problem put me off

and the alloys do have some kerbing on them.

i have phoned the other guy selling the silver one and says he will be free during the weekend and i can view the car then.

ill upload the pics of the service history as soon as the guy emails them to me

Hey

first of all i just want to answer about some ppl saying that my username and the guy selling the car is on photobuket are the same username.

my surname is khan and when becoming a member here yesterday i wanted my user name to be khan_is but wasntt availiable. the user name just to cAme into my mind and i just created it KHANDUB.

Any way have phoned the guy with the blue lexus and says it has full lexus service history and that when he went to get the car serviced lexus recomended these cambelt and tension etc etc and he got em done i have requested some pictures of the service history book and have arranged a viewing tommorow afternoon, i want to go during the day so i can have a good look at the car for any scratches, dents or any paint work damage. when he emails me the pictures of the service book ill post the pics up and you guys can let me know if any thing is dodgy.

how do i upload pics onto the forum

the guy selling the car is saying he has got a lot ppl viewing the car in next few days and i better hurry (but i dont to hurry myself into buying a car)

thanks again for your replies

hi again

thanks for the info

i noticed you guys sayin the insurance is quite expensive but i was in an accident few years ago

when i add that to my insurance quote the price just doubles

from the cars ive shown you the best one to me seems to be

like you guys say if serviced regularly it shouldnt go wrong

its the se model with all the sports stuff on it except for the two tone steering wheel

and to be honest its cream interior looks much better than the black and with the armrest sat nav and everfing

all the kit i'd say of the guy comes down a few hundred quid i might just take it

i'm going to give him a call and see if i can view the car

anything i need to ask him about the car

thanks

Hi, everyone

Didn’t want the s coz was missing a lot of the little features

Se Its ok with all the bits a bobs

Sport insurance group is one higher an me been 23 my insurance goes to £1700 too much cant afford that can buy a car with that money

i know they are heavy on petrol but i think i can manage
