If its for sale put it in the 'For Sale' Section
I think you'll find its already sold and the info is for whoever bought the car and if im right i'd say it was sold to a dealer so if the buyer has heard of/joined LOC its a bit of additional info. :winky:
the car was sold a couple of months ago to a private buyer - this post was simply for info incase a potential buyer searches on loc in the future for the car..

Okay, been meaning to do this for ages - in a nutshell, if someone is thinking (or has) bought this car - here is its history up to 2006.
IS200 SE
Pre-Registered in Sept 2000 on X372 YEL.
Was either a demo (unlikely) or just a pre-register to get the figures up - and sold in 2 or 3 months to an Elderly Gentleman in Dorset (hence unlikely, demo's typically run 6 months).
He owned it for about a year - only taking it to football, before trading it for a GS - and it came into my possesion at 18 months old with about 9000 miles on the clock in March 2002.
I then subsequently owned it for 4 and half years, covering about 50,000 miles - mostly motorway miles too and from heathrow. The car was garaged most of the time and serviced on the button by lexus Swindon every year.
Passed 3 MoT's under my ownership without a single problem - and only once had 1 issue.
A door tweeter blew, which forced the stereo into safe mode - while under warranty - during fault finding the stereo and amp were replaced with brand new items (in 2003).
Other than that, the car was faultless - and served me very well - it was sold in September 2006 to a guy in Bath, and as long as he maintained the service history, it should be a very good purchase.
If you want more info on this car, please email through my profile!

hoppy barthday matey!

I was never impressed with them when i looked at buying one...
although that was a measly FQ-320, but it just seemed to be lacking, not to mention the interior of an airfix kit and the image of your average max power reader...
Great technology, but left me empty...

Bobski's selling a Peco - not as loud as the others mentioned, but better looking and very nice it is too ;)

lets be honest.
They have put the 'small buisness' out of buisness.. nowadays if i see an actual butchers shop its a novelty
but they'd still have killed the high-street shop.
With all the extra stuff they offer, and the inherent laziness of the british public, im not surprised - however, what it means is more companies going out of buisness, and less choice for the consumer, which i think is a bad thing...
I have to agree actualy, It's a shame that local shops go under but I personaly Use the Local butcher and Fruitery that are next door to my work, quality is alot better but then so are the prices. I, in all honesty, wouldn't use them if i din't work here because of the time factor and local councills around here charge £1 for 20mins parking and its just more hassel when you can go to Tesco's for everything eaisaly.
we have a lot of farm shops around here - i like it because they sell local produce (from other farms too) and the meat is absolutley fresh - and you can see the animals grazing...

They sell most things, not just food, but clothes, electronics etc - and have even gone into banking, insurance etc.
The truth is - if their financial services had been a subsiduary, and all the spurious things away from the actual supermarket were reported seperatley, the number wouldnt be as big - but they'd still have killed the high-street shop.

i have 2 standard rear lights for an IS200 - PM me if interested!
-
i'd say be careful - call him, but treat him as any other unknown - make sure you have the money in cleared funds before handing the keys over... etc.
-
I guess u get what u pay for.
Keep looking!
i think that sums it up...
if your looking sub 5k your not going to get a mint example...

Hi Claire, glad keiron is okay - he did always want a SC430 though, poor kid :winky:
As for my new car - just a sensible, everyday runabout: http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...5932&st=25#
(ignore the fact the IS200 is still there, she was sold a couple of weeks ago (sniff sniff))

Hey Claire, nice to hear from you :D
I've also moved on from the Lex... ;)

buying a 8 year-old supercar as my only car - and one i need to rely on for work ;)

Barrie,
You do know most insurers will do a 'linked' policy - so you can use your no claims on a second car.
regardless of what it is, if you insure it 3rd party only with 0 miles a year - it's gotta be cheap!

but surely killing him full stop is hypocritical?
let him rot in a crappy prison of his own making for the rest of his existence...
killing him does nothing, other than quench the Americans lust for blood justice...
