Damoo

How do these cars "drive"? Apparently going by reviews they don't have much go. Also, are they comfy and could they take 4 people with enough room to be comfortable?

Hello and Welcome to the club matey :D

Few more tips on buying HERE

Think the big thing to check with the mileage is that its had the timing belt changed :)

Ah, thank you for that link, the welcome and the advice, would service logs indicate if it had been replaced? Also, does that list apply for Australian cars also? You know how sometimes there can be differences between the same car from either countries occasionaly etc :)

Thanks for the welcome!

Hi all I'm new, I'm going to be buying a car in late April or around September this year, and a Lexus IS200 6sp manual has caught my eye, its listed at $14,250. What are the main problems with these cars? Are there any expensive things I should look out for? It has 18" Chrome wheels but I'm not interested in them, it looks like its the only modification. It has 162,000Km on it, they don't mention anything about service history either. I also scanned this which might be a bit of help for any of you:

Thanks in Advance. I asked this on the aussie forum but no one ever goes on there much it seems.
