Well it's only been about 12 months in the searching but I have finally found my new car and paid the deposit today
Thanks to Fidgits for his continual nagging on the subject and a big thanx to ifraz who looked at the car for me in the pouring rain and sent me a lovely detailed report and pictures by e mail.
Haven't got a collection date yet but could even be this weekend.
And it is . . .
2001 X reg IS SE in Black with Exmoor interior. It's an auto with FLSX and just turned 43 000 miles. It has a high level integrated brake light spoiler, 1 Owner and comes with 1 Year Lexus warranty, RAC Cover, 6 months tax, 12 Months MOT (although it's not due until Sept 04) and half a tank of fuel.
It's at Lexus Nottingham (but not for much longer )
Happy bunny.
