hmm food for thought indeed. I think at this point i'll call Jemca and take it from there. Hopefully they willl be able to do something.

I could do it just for the drive!! thank for the for offer pal!

absolute star thank you!!

aha thanks for the tip!

they look fantastic!! I simply don't have the time for any DIY though. But seriously good work there!

thanks for the responses guys!

Apparently they are very prone to having a lot of corrosion requiring more than your average amount of work. It's just a shame as the alloys are all that are keeping her from looking quite prestine

Hi all

My 17" 5 spoke alloys are in really bad condition with curbing all around and corrosion on all wheels.

I have been looking around but I can as there is corrosion apparently they need to be sand blasted and/or chemical dipped etc and quotes are coming in excess of £200. To be honest I was happy paying circa £160 for a mobile van but on such an old car I feel somewhat reluctant to spend the money which is a shame as the rest is pretty immaculate now.

I live in Bromley, Kent, and there seems to be no-one willing to take this one as soon as i mention "Lexus IS200".

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

aha! Thank you very much, I'll have a gander!

Hi folks

I have purchased a new air temp sensor as my car currently reads "--". I have read that it is located somewhere behind the bumper offside. However I simply can't find it. Is this a bumper off / wheel arch lining job off, or am I being dense?

Thanks

Wow thanks all!! Yes the Coupe was designed by Pininfarina and a really lovely car to drive, but yes the Lexus is something else I must admit! I am enjoying being back in RWD again but I need to get my TC back online, but on the plus side it makes rainy days a little interesting!

Very nice to see another forum with great people!

Thanks Janey! Im still unsure whether this will be a stop over or i'll invest time in and keep her but either way, thoroughly impressed with Japanese engineering!

Hi folks!

As a long time member of the 406 Coupe Club it's great to see another bunch of enthusiasts! Lovely car to drive!

Thanks
