It's advertised on Gumtree and Facebook.

A guy came on sat to view it liked it done deal for 4700 and asked if can drop it off on London and  he called Monday morning to confirm but stopped answering my phone .

He was a mechanic working in garage in South London so I decided to take drive there as told me name of garage. After calling him many times decided to call garage and to my shock no1 working here by that name . How weird was that as came waste his time on sat for over 1 hr. Trying to enjoy it as much as I can so not in hurry to sell it. Had lot of trader's interested offering trade prices and private ones making silly offers .  Road tax 395 and v6 engine so that's what ppl scared of 🤣🤣

Link?

I have been using an ex Lexus Woodford Technician who set-up his own garage in Hainault Business Park. It’s an appointment service so great you get the one to one treatment and I have been using him for over 14 years.

 

His name is Dan - 07878 018732

You can say Ishaq passed the details via the forum and he will look after you. 
 

I have never been disappointed and he tells me what works needs doing next, but to be honest the IS250 is a bullet and all that ever do is brakes and discs and oil service.

Good luck.

Thanks for this!

Bit far for me but highly likely I will use him!

Have also been using Kevin for the last 6 years. Popped over today to book an annual service for the LS and was gutted to see they have gone.

Did you find somewhere new?

Hi all,

Long time lurker, first time poster. 

I've been lusting after an ISF for the past 7 or so years and now find myself in the position to be able to buy. So far, I've seen the USB 2010 in Croydon and Silver 2008 in Fareham on Auto trader, in the metal, but both have had their issues. 

Ideally, I'd like a 2010 or younger in USB, but realistically I am open to all colours and ages, as condition and preventative maintenance (radiator and water pump etc.) is what I understand to be key. 

I'm definitely not looking for anything over 100k miles, imported or cat repaired. 

Is anyone here looking to sell? 

Cheers,

Alex

Hi, I was considering going to look at the Croydon car as a replacement for my AMG. It’s local to me.

What were the issues you found?

We have an LS430 as the family bus which has been so good I can see me progressively moving all the cars over to Lexus.

cheers !

That’s great chaps, really helpful!

My beloved LS430 is in with my trusted Indy and needs an offside rear upper control arm.

I knew they were £££ but apparently are now no longer available from lexus.

Does any one have any recommended supplier? I’d prefer OEM if possible.

Thanks

Deposit down!

Very excited, will put up a proper introduction in the new members section when the car is collected.

Thanks to Mr doofa and The acre for advice given via PM 

Three viewings tomorrow.

Fingers crossed I will be driving home in a LS430 

Any members near Bolton ?

I may have to compromise on interior colour to buy the best condition car I can find.

Has anyone bought from South West Lexus (Indy) near Bristol? Or Moses gate near Bolton?

Thanks again, I test drove one this morning and everyone was correct: lots of space.

The hunt for a good condition (ideally facelift) car with black leather continues.

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated.

The market for good LS430s seems to be strong at the minute. That’s a couple of good cars I’ve been interested in go very quickly !

Afternoon all,

I am in the market for a LS430 but am struggling to find any locally to view.

A bit of an odd request but I’d be very grateful if anyone could measure the space between the back of the drivers seat and the front of the rear seat cushion. I’m 6ft so    Ideally someone close to my height would be great!

My current car has 20cm and I need quite a bit more. May end up in a LWB S class at this rate!

many thanks

I’m interested in this one. However there are no pics of the damage available and it’s due a cam belt etc.

Finding it tricky to value.

Is this the Isle of Arran car?
