Yeah I think its like the Deep South.... you know, where the coppers wifes brother is the bar owner and he thought I might be going to drink next door.... sure I saw some tumble weed blow through that town..... Loz Lobos

:arrrggg-matey: OI!!! Cheeky!! I think I might try a set of the stick on ones for the rangy. if they can getr them here overnight I'll fit them tomorrow and if they any good I'll stick with my order for the Lexus. Sounds pretty smart to me! Now what discount can I get for the stick on ones..... Loz

Sorry Matt, Mine has seen more carwashes than I've seen Condom Vending Machines on public toilets at the services on the M1. and thats a few! I can probly see swirl marks now if I look but I don't. I did notice that some twonk lowered the garage door down on the back screen pillars though and did a nice little touch up job that I only noticed last week. 3.5 months into owner ship. NOW, if I cleaned it by hand I would have noticed it earlier when the car was all special and been really upset. now I just think, "well at least my anti-roll bar doesn't knock!"......... Loz

You guys crack me up. but how many years have you been paying car insurance without ever using it? Now who'se the dummy!?? Loz ps. yes I do insure my cars. just making a funny before the gamekeepers go off on one...

Matt, next week are you around for a drink. I'll buy a lesson in flash off you too if you'll show me!! Loz

Thats what I'm here for Mr TDIPLC.... Also on a serious note I had a gun pulled on me in turkey by a copper who wanted a group of us to move off the street and back in a bar. bit extreme I thought. I was going to ask him, "Is it becoz I IZ BlaK? " but, my sense of survival got the better of me. They take the side walk very seriously in Turkey! Loz

Yo! Mr Admin, See above. I'm in. What do I have to do next, stamp my feet and light a match!?? Let me know the deal date and I'll be on board with all you other bargain hunters... although after backing into M&S car park last night I think I might have to put them on the Rangy instead! all the little cars dissappear and I am so used to the Lex that I am allowing way to much room. reckon you should get Quanan to have a word with the off roader magazines. bet the country is full of birds who have trouble parking these over grown shopping trolleys outside the school gates twice a day and then have the same challenge at the beauty parlor.... Sorry Dr Admin, Am I straying off the subject again.... :duh: Loz .

Climate Control!! Is that just an excuse to fool customs from realising that you have been trafficing narcotics in your head lining!! Shame on you... ps. just put her in the garage, wonder if they can make me another magic carpet... Loz

Dear all, how often do you reckon is wise to clean your Lexus in Winter and I wonder of those who claim never to frequent a car wash, just how long that lasts in the next few months?? Me, I use the ARC ( used to be IMO) to clean mine a couple of times a week at least. thinking of getting a hot jet wash for home but seldom there so ditched that plan. reckon all the cack is bad for your car or just your image? I am going to use the Rangy as much as possible to save the salt grit and cack on my baby. that is why I have it really at this time of year... still use the Lex for work but odd jobbing is the preserve of the big numb Rangy! Your thoughts?? Loz

I thought this post was going to be about Christmas lunch.... My answer: No. Turkey should be in the oven where it belongs! Loz ps. hmmm.....hungry? I think so! On a serious note: anyone who tramples on other peoples rights should be deprived of their own. Simple.

I thank you!! I am just a petrol head and there is no getting past the fact that this is a proper kick ***** V8 gas guzzeler. go anywhere and get you back if you're in the RAC... Seriously though, I just like having a Recreational motor that gives my arrsse a break from the lovely Lexus and is also good for playing in, cheap enough to not worry about going out in 2 foot of snow when I need to go snow boarding! and can still be parked outside a michelin star restaurant without looking like a poor relative. reminds me, I must get one of those stickers that says "Me Ovva motah is a Lexas!" How tasteful, no? Loz

OOOIIII!!!! Rodders! NNNNOOOOO!!!! Range Rovers are Square! They've always been Square and they'll be SQUARE FOREVER!!! :shruriken: :arrrggg-matey:

Also Matt, they stop your anti rollbar making an annoyoing clatter when you go over bumps. they are a flexible mount that when worn out, become a truly irritating source of banging and thumping noises. if I had known they were so cheap I would have put four on!! (only kidding!!) 2 is plenty *puts wallet in safe place...* Loz :arrrggg-matey:

Whaaaoooo!!! Got up this morning to a white topped hill. thought I better hit the snow button and look what happend. My Lexus metamophosised into the thing in my Avatar!!! Wonder if you bought an IS 200 if when you press "Snow" it gives you a Discovery and if you bought an SC430 you might get a freelander! It's all good! Loz :duh: :hohoho:

I hope you are not referring the the five finger discount policy that some of the less honourable enhabitants of this planet are prone to help themselves to!! :shruriken:

Matt, can you make a pic of a car go all swishy like a name? if you could make my car morph into my nickname and then into my number plate I might just have to cross your palm with enough silver to buy you a pint of your favourite mead! Loz - of barter town :shruriken:

Matt Knows how much I envy his swirly bits!! hmm speaking of new avatars, is this a bit catty?? Loz

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question ANdy but would like to be included in the reply as my 99 GS has slightly manky alloys too. Hope someone know the answer. I would guess its safe but then I'd guess I will win the lottery if I buy a ticket some time soon... Loz

Votre Englais et tres bien!! Je travail avec plus force a ma francais mais, Zut Alors beacoup de temps c'est malade! Merd! Maintenat j'ai mal a la tete! Je rest.... :duh:

VInce, You are without doubt a TOP BLOKE for thinking of doing a photo record so that we can all benefit!! NICE ONE, If only everyone in life was a nice as Vince-com.... ;)

Okay, I'm in then. but pray tell, what happened to the LOC merchandise we ordered a couple of months ago?? Hats, T shirts, thongs ect.... Any news?? Loz - of online payment fame

WHHHOOOOOAAAAAA!!!! Now hang on a minute. WHATS WRONG WITH A RANGY??? I feel its the best four by four by far for the money. they are extremely capable off road and very comfortable on road. the only thing is the noise ( wind road and Engine ) but its just as well I have the Lexus to address all those issues. this is a great car for bad weather and if you want to get crazy you can take off the front bib spoiler and attack some serious inclines! Rangys are great mate! and very cheap to fix. Parts are cheap and a donkey could work on them. I think a few have on mine in the past. Loz defender of the faith Rangy Vogue V8 Petrol

Well my dear chapollata! I had been getting a knocking sound from the front end when the front wheels went over an speed bump or crackin the road, of which there are too many!!! Last time I was in at Lexus they said the ball joints were dying. I got some and had them fitted elsewhere at 1/3 the labour charge cos I'm tight. Then went to france only to find that the damn thing was tighter on the steering yes. but still knocked on bumps. Dratt and Double Drat!! I went back and they looked and said the anti roll bar bushed might be pooped so I thought to my self.... "I'll try them cos they're cheep, like the budgie!!". So I got some and they were put on today for a tenna and by jiminy, it worked. the car tracks bang on, the steering is like a lazer guided misile, the clunking noise is GONE!!! Happy? Oh I think so, just a little bit! So the moral of this story is..... Don't rush off and buy an LS400 untill you have experienced your GS at it best. she certainly is now! Loz

Think what I meant was, Someone said they take an hour to fit. if thats so, I wold still get a garage to fit mine so as not to butcher my car. question was, will a garage agree its an hours job. I HOPE SO! Loz Or at the risk of being a party pooper I might go for the stick on jobbies. and have on front centre and two rear corners. How CLEVER is that!! perfect parking set up for £95. Sorted, as they say in the east=end gangster films....

okay, not that I need them, but.... HAs anyone an idea what they would cost to fit. would a garage be happy with an hours labour. if so I will have a some cos I think they will add value to the car whe I sell it to some old duffer who thinks I never so much as stepped on a crackin the pavment..... OH shYT the drugs are wearing off!!! Where did that effing pumpkin come from!!! and why does my key fit in it!!?? Loz dazzed and confused and should be working! answers on a postcard please!!
