Well just to let you know that all's well that end's well. Sold the Lexus on E-Bay of all places for £14100, which considering dealers were offering between 9k and 11.5k is quite a result. The moral of the tale is don't believe anything a dealer tells you about colour/spec etc, there's always someone out there who is after exactly what you have to sell. If the person that bought the car is reading this I hope it brings you as much pleasure as it did me, and you got a car that a dealer would have charged you another 2k for :D :D :D
