  1. yes it is legal. only cars registered`98 and onwards need the british standard kite mark mine is `97 and i am a welder by trade also cost me £10 for the steel to make the tow bar and £50 for auto electrician to fit and wire socket. i wasn`t skimping,i just wanted my own design and being able to take it off with nothing at all showing
  2. fit a tow bar and keep it.... i made my own detatchable tow bar a few months ago and have the socket underneath out of sight. 10 mins to fit the ball to the tow bar and i am up and away, there is no sign whatsoever with the ball off that anyone could tell it has one on
  3. cheers i was hoping for around the 9k mark will give it a few days more thought and maybee it will be on the site for sale. had bm`s , jags ,etc etc but i will be ****** if this has to go a better ride than my ex wife. ( thinking about that...so is a skateboard)
  4. thinking of selling my `97 mk1 sport 10" rears fully serviced with very recent cam belt change very low milage.just under 60,000 very good condition new rear tyres etc etc etc i know i am going to take a hit on this as i have owned it just over a year and stands me at 12k finances first,toys later thanks in advance
  5. had the dash clocks out of my mk1 to replace an instrument bulb, ran to the garage with no instruments in....... hasn`t run right since. takes longer / or holds an extra 500 rpm before changing gear now any ideas or is it a main agent job.. cheers
  6. i have i x 10" rear that also needs repair / refurb with little worn tyre ,i got a new one through warranty and so have this lying around with or without tyre can have it cheap email me on tony@selectweb.net north west area
  7. cheers for that, i have been in contact today and will send it off to them in the new year
  8. anyone have one for sale? mine is a mk1 gs300 sport 12 disc changer and it will not eject magazine, had it in bits and released it but when i put it back in it either comes up with err / or just keepson the load screen easier to replace it i think........... unless someone has an answer! email tony@playstation88.freeserve.co.uk as i dont access the web too often cheers
  9. mine does the same, push the car harder in the corners and it goes away. can only think that the sport with harder suspention than gs 300 is the cause my last car 325 bmw was the same, first got mine in february, it was like that when i bought it , i then put 275x35x18`s on the back and still the same. i have really hammered mine on some corners and the road holding is unbelievable for such a large car. will go round corners a lot better at speed than the 325, which i also uprated from the standard springs. i would say don`t worry
  10. mine too were a bit tatty and so looked at alternatives, they are a tap on fit allthough pretty tight, they do tap off as they are fixed with a spring steel insert if i knew or anyone can tell me how i will upload a couple of pics. i went a bit silly and put two stainless 5" zap tips on,looks good to me. £40 each from local powerlow exhaust agents.
  11. 19mm if using original nuts 21 mm if using correct size nuts this i know because i have just recieved a new rear 18x10 and it came with new nuts now i have to carry two different size wheelbraces well one 1/2 drive bar and two sockets
  12. i too have the same problem,phoned lexus last week toorder a new wheel and asked them, they said if i do not have the key number they could still get it by doing a toyota search ( presumabaly using the car`s vin n0 ) i would have to take the car to them along with proof of ownership and estimated around £200 for 1 key. if i lose the one i have now then the complete immobiliser will have to be changed £2000, think me goin for the key option.
  13. depends what you call reasonable??? the best price new i can find is bentleys @ warrington tel 0800 7838478 part no: 01700100003 18x10 9 spoke £342 + vat lexus dealer vary from £633 to £722 + vat but will only sell them with tyres ( pirelli p0`s ) going to order one today. also jap spares instockton on tees ( breakers ) have some in but want £300 each and they say they will need re-furbishing have new toyo proxes s1`s on at the moment and seem to be excellent handling, what they wear like i will be able to say in a few months. hope this helps
