  1. Happy Birthday lapat!

  2. Any body know what the typical service cost is????
  3. Hi there.. I've covnverted back from the Germans to a Lexus and to be honest the ct I have got a 2012 se-l is like being on a cruise liner compared to my bmw 520 dmsport wih it's rock hard run flat tyres
  4. hi there not posted for a long time as i changed my lexus for a beemer about 18 months ago then a jag and im looking again at a sportcross(3rd childs needs) the reason why i exchanged my is(with sat nav) was due to me sticking it in a lampost side on into the drivers door. john my damage was no where near as bad as yours as you have listed on the parts list,and mine went to direct line in saford where they tried to repair it except it kept jumping of the jig(aparantley the guy working on it refused to do so as it was dangerous(this i was told later)so d/l sent it to lexus who sent it straight back saying it needed a shell and extensive straitening.direct line then tried to strip it down to verify this and it took six weeks in all for them to settle on it wasnt repairable. i knew this the moment i come round from the daze my passenger had inflicted on me when he headbutted me when the lampost brought the car to an abrupt halt(not saying what speed i was doing)that the car was unrepairable so i would be asking for a second opinion as i did as i was not prepared to drive a potential deathtrap dont forget is's are lightweight shells and bend easiley all the best and i hope i havent put you on a downer and you will get another is no probs just ring round all the dealers in you area telling them your predicament and im sure the calls will come flooding in as mine did when i went looking for kmy original is all the best lapat
  5. just for arguments sake on this post firstly i would be gratefull if oyu would stop slating my native manchester secondley your cars got a a tracker fitted it goes from outside your house in say birmingham at 1.00am in the morning yoiu get up go out to defrost it at 8.00am and sh*t its gone you notify tracker/police signal is not recieved at the car why cause it was sat in a container lined with silver foil at hull docks awaiting to go to the balkans and then onto to an arab nation and its been there for four hours and your tracker doesnt work why cause its a bloody mobile phone at the end of the day block its signal and your knackered believe me it works a pal of mine works for manchester stolen vehicle squad and they were losing more 4 x4 to an arab state this way for payment for illegal substances best thing to do put a expensive disk type steering lock on it to drive it they have to remove your steering wheel thus activating the air bag thats if they can get to the bolt in the first place if they really want it some scroat will drag you out of it anyway
  6. its nothing to do with the filters cold air is denser and as the is are a petrol guzzler through there six cylinder the petrol mixed with the denser cold air burns a lot lot better so giving you more pokey pokey
  7. snow............!!!!!!!!!!!!! i didnt need snow to stick mine in a lampost good luck to you all back to front wheel drive for me
  8. hi there i recentley purchased my x plate 2001 aztec fire is200 its only the base model with 44k on the clock with sat nav i give £12k for it from lexus so have a good luck round they did have sports on the forecourt even a v plate for £11500 it had 60k on the clock and was platinum ice so they are about for the money you want to pay i went for the base as i had leather in my merc e class before i bought this and it was really cold and un comfy at times,theres really not a lot of difference apart from trim levels and wheel sizes(didnt matter to me as i always by non standard wheels eventually) good luck anyway john
  9. i think i have got a problem as i tried it again today with and without the trc on and i lose all power when it slides and regrips thought i was being a little heavy and the rev limiter was kicking in but i didnt even hit redline back to lexus she goes but how do i explain that ive no power when coming out of a sideways slide at roundabouts hehehe
  10. anybody out there help i floor my is200 especially into roundabouts and it will start to slide and then traction kicks in but i lose all power(like a flat spot)for just a second or so then it will pick back up is this a fault or is it something thats built into the computer to control the traction control aswell i know some off you are going to say turn trc off but i still like too have a little sideways fun with my lad in the car(be a little safe) john
  11. all take a look at these advertised on ebay 20" wheels john
  12. auction it via ebay atebay make sure you put a reserve on it otherwise you could sell it for silly monies john
  13. me toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
  14. hi mate regarding your reg plate it will not sell overnight it may take months they will advertise it for the quote they give you and when it does sell it would be quicker if its on retention,you should get the original plate back on the car that it was first registered with and the one thats for sale that you have seen have a look on dvlas own site as if its a dealer he will be adding his cut on top most regestrations on dvlas site start at £249 and thats even the transfer to the car included if you want anymore info drop me a line john
  15. lets get ready to rumble AZTEC FIRE no other would have done for me maybe black if i pushed it chris shipley may be able to help us out here i am of the understanding regarding colours that lexus rotate the colours on an 18 month basis i.e the colour i have AZTEC FIRE is not available anymore as its now its the gold colour thats available,as for there base colours,blues etc they change the shade slightly approxiamatley every nine months this i have been told is to keep the residual value of the lexus up(i.e limit the colour)
