Also, I only work 13 miles away from where I live, I hardly ever use the motorway, just don't need to. I did the engine treatment thing by forte about a month ago. And I've got 125000 miles on the clock. Not sure if this has an effect on the efficiency, or whether the fact that its a 54 plate? Had they gotten more efficient the younger the engines?

I'm using morrisons. And maybe I'm being more delicate than others here, but I'm getting 400 - 420 miles before filling up again. I fill to the brim and wait until the needle is resting on the pin. About 50 miles with the fuel light on.

Very nice detailing. I like the white caps with the silver logo.

I think my stuff came through in about 2weeks, though I'm sure Steve saidthey sometimes wait to post out a couple of packs at a time, but there's no harm in asking. How are you?

Welcome to the site. I've had my is200 for 2 months and am absolutely loving it.

£30 = 21.75 litres ( assuming price of petrol is £137.9p ) 95 miles ÷ 21.75 litres × 4.546 (uk mpg convertion figure) = 19.85 mpg. I drive like a priest and am only just getting 29mpg. (420 miles on near 70 litres)

Hi Ian. Would the Plank and Leggit allow a mobile valet at their car park on Sunday 5th? If I'm driving up from South Wales, my car is going to be quite dirty and to have its photo taken on the day, I'd like it to have a little spruce up?

That cardboard box would look great on the boot lid! Lol. Just joking. Are there any spoilers for the SportCross?

Brilliant. Thanks guys.

How easy are the calipers to paint? I wanna do mine gold to match the bodywork, or would that look odd?

Received an invoice from ParcelForce on Friday. Import Tax and Clearance Charge. . . Shouldn't be too long now.

I'm really annoyed at Cardiff for treating you this way. I've been dealing with Martin and Natalie in Parts and Servicing as my car is much older and they have been pretty good. Also, from Leicester, they should've checked the car more thoroughly. A cracked windscreen? That's poor.

Hey Paul. How're you doing? We've got a meet planned in May up in Nottingham. I'm driving up from South Wales. The guys on the forum are brilliant and there's a few threads offering advice for increasing power, fixing things. I've only been an owner for near 2 months and I've been welcomed to the site amazingly. Loving the car.

The centre console (heater vents, access to the radio) is very easy to remove. I've had to take my radio out a couple of times and it's a 20 minute job. I'll find the thread about replacing radio unit as it has a YouTube video showing how easy it is.

Those who are inclined to complain, will do so over a variety of platforms, this will then seem to to have increased the percentage of complaints made. More and more people are being told that if you complain, your are more likely to get a discount (in the terms of a purchase) or at least the possibility of compensation (as you have an early recording of a complaint that can be escalated later if necessary) There are always going to be some people who will find offence at anything and the portrail of mental health in the media is improving slightly. Jon Richardson (the comedian) did a documentary about living with OCD and was almost apologetic near the end as he met people with diagnosed OCD and he was trying to say how difficult he found managing what he perceived to be his OCD although this wasn't diagnosed. Yet it has clearly been impacting on his life otherwise he wouldn't be mentioning it. Yes, he is able to get up on stage and laugh about it and deal with it better than those who have actually been diagnosed and yes, as a comedian that is his job, so maybe he exaggerates, but his family amd friends have witnessed his intricacies and tendencies and feel that he is controlled by them to a certain degree. But to live with a severe OCD must be extremely difficult for those who have been diagnosed.

Very nice pictures, thanks for showing it off to us. It does look good on the black rims.

Good morning and Welcome to the site. 10 plate Lexus. . . . Mmmm. Newer car than mine . . . . I'm only in a 54 plate . . .

Brilliant. Thanks for that Matt.

Fair point. I'll ring someone tomorrow. Cheers Matt-c

I'll put a photo up tomorrow, as I have two stone chips in my windscreen. I think, once I've got the rear brakes and summer tyres sorted, keeping my fingers crossed that nothing breaks before then, I'll arrange to get my windscreen replaced, instead of filled.

Hello Jure. Very nice looking car. ( can I say that I like the look of cars from easter europe on steel wheels. . . . . . ) Yes it looks odd!

I'll probably go with the 215 as the usual tyre for the wheel.

Hehe, most of our meets appear to be for Lexus owners of all models, but i'm sure its a nice feeling knowing how few sc's there are on the road.

Hi Chelle, welcome to the site. I've got no advice for the sc, other than enjoy it. it's an amazing looking car. hope to see you at some of the meet ups!
