  1. Is this common guys...... With my Lexus I have no bids, 2 watchers and 4 days to go on Ebay? I would have thought being a Lexus IS200 Sport I would have had a bid and a good few watchers by now due to her extensive history and the condition she is in? I must say though I'm not the best with cars thus me asking!!
  2. Thank you, glad my ad' is ok! Lots of searching on here for all the info :D My neighbour who owns an Evo 7 did a test to see what my average MPG was over a month with two full fill ups. This is using a few A roads and some town driving, it worked out at 32.9MPG. The reason for this was when I bought her I found her to be really good on fuel, a lot better than the reviews I had read. She is only a tad more to run than my previous car which was a 206 1.6 All the reviews said how bad they were and that a BMW 320 E36 was faster and better on fuel, I have to disagree.......Also a far better car than a 3 series BMW!
  3. Thanks guys......really helpful :winky: I have advertised her on Ebay, thought I would see how it goes as have a good feedback etc. Michele :)
  4. Thank you for the reply :) If I aim for the £3,500 mark then as she is in mint condition. I am wondering where to advertise.....local paper, Autotrader etc?? I have heard of horror stories about selling cars via Ebay, don't know how true they are though.
  5. Hi all :) I'm in need of some help here! It is time to sell my Lexus IS200 Sport due to the fact she hardly gets used so going to buy myself a cheap old banger to get me to work and back! Ok.....Before I get shot down in flames I'm a Mental Health Nurse so my knowledge on cars really is not the best so please be kind to me :P My Lexus has covered 94,897 miles. fully stamped Lexus service history, 9 months MOT and 3 months Tax. In excellent condition inside and out. 4 new tyres that have covered around 800 miles, full service carried out 1,670 miles ago. She is in the silver although looks a teeny bit like gold is in there!! She is a 2002. Very well loved and cared for. My Sister's Husband works for Aston Martin and valet's it for me using Autoglym products. Any ideas on price would be great Michele
  6. Thanks for helpful replies I used to use STP injector cleaner on my old Pug 205 1.9 GTI as recomended by a mechanic, never knew if it worked or did anything!! Yeldarb I see your from Milton Keynes.....so are we!! We are Wolverton end, 2 mins from Stony Stratford.
  7. Just wondering if its ok to use a fuel additive (injector fuel system cleaner) on my IS200 Sport? This is the newest car I have ever owned so not sure if it would help/harm such a complex engine? Also if they are ok which one is the one to go for? There are a good few. STP, Redex, Wynns, Nitrox etc etc
  8. Im looking for some decent condition Lexus IS200 mats for the front of my car. Need to be geuine Lexus one. Thanks
  9. I have some normal number plates on my car. Anyone know where I can get some decent ones with a GB sign and maybe a small logo on bottom saying IS200 or Lexus, something not to chav though!
  10. What wrong with Supermarket fuel? It all comes out of the same storage tanks at the refineries. My Husbands Escort Cosworth tuned to 372bhp would jerk like mad on Supermarket fuel! Also my old Corrado VR6 would not run well off supermarket fuel, they dont put in the additives according to a friend of ours that works on the tech side for Aston Martin. Found in the past that Shell Optimax is excellent, but this was on the Corrado with some mods that made 201bhp on rollers and my Husbands Escort Cosworth. Just wondered if it would be that bit better on a Lexus 2.0 6 cylinder 24v, think mine is 153-4bhp but not had her RR'd yet.
  11. Just wondering if it is worth using Super Unleaded in my IS200 (either BP Ultimate or Shell Optimax)......any benefits or just just worth sticking to the normal being Shell or BP 95 Ron......I never use Supermaket fuel!
  12. I must start by saying im not promoting high speeds here! What is the top speed of an IS200 Sport, anyone had any high speeds on Autobahns?
  13. My IS200 beeps when im in reverse.......is there anyway of stopping this, remove a fuse or something?
  14. I have just bought a 51 IS200 Sport...... Really happy!!!!!! The garage is taking my Pug 206 in PX so hopefully collecting tomorrow as he is going to give it a full valet and put 12 months MOT on. I have just found out that there is an IS200 Estate..... This is fantastic news as my Husband loves the IS200 but needs an Estate for our dogs, Bullmastiff & German Shepherd. Are the Estates any good, what kind of boot space do they have and I take it they share the same parts like brakes, exhaust etc as the saloon?
