I spent 33 years in royal mail and all the vans turned pink. Now the smaller vans are changed every 3-5 years Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

I bought my bearing from a firm called sjrautoparts on eBay in September 2017. The price then was £54.89. You can probably find others on there even cheaper. Easy enough to fit as well. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Well I suppose I was lucky that I only had to replace one side. It's probably one of those jobs where it's advisable to do both sides but I figured " if it ain't broke don't fix it" I could only hear my bearing when turning, not in a straight line. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

I think if the noise is when you turn right it's your left hand bearing. My older 430 did this when turning left and was fine when I replaced the right hand one Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Well the jobs have all been done and the exhausts look and sound great. The company have obviously taken on board the comments about the exhausts were slightly offset and rectified that so happy days. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

My plates have the England flag on the left with England below, ( which they say you can't have) and at the bottom middle they have my first initial and my surname. Never had a problem at the m.o.t. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

I've used that company a few times, for my car, caravan and trailer. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Fantastic savings. Worthwhile saving the name! Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

No I didn't bother. If the garage can't use the existing one's they should be able to work around it. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Yes of course I'll let you all know and put up some pics. This is for my '55' plate hence the straight pipe ends with the chrome tips. The feedback I read about someone else's experience with these was that they were a good fit, quiet and considerably cheaper than what the company who fitted them could make them for. The only 'niggle' was that the pipe ends were a little off centre and although they were not bothered by it they mentioned it to to seller so that may have been addressed now, but to be honest, for the price it wouldn't bother me either.

Funnily, they're 2 black, back boxes. [emoji1] Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Looks like my one Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

took the 'ol gal for an m.o.t today as it was due mid December and it passed. [emoji106] However, the advisories listed both back boxes have a very slight blow, all the pads are legal but should be replaced and the handbrake needs some adjustment. So... I'll be booking it in to have the work done anyway with the parts I've ordered. I've managed to get the back boxes via eBay after some favourable recommendations Ironically the German made exhaust will be shipped from Poland and should arrive in a week. ...and the pads I've got from Euro car parts.

Brilliant value these cars. I paid £3000 for my 2000 nearly 5 years ago and after both my offside doors were damaged in our accident at the end of September the 3rd party insurer offered me £2050 as it's also a cat N write off but non structural. I paid £300 to keep the car so that was £1750 in the bank, bought 2 excellent doors from Paul Frost for £200, one of which is the matching Canterbury blue, the other silver. So, all I have to do now is have the silver one painted. Because I bought the 2005 model for £2995 after the accident I'll be selling the 2000 on and I reckon I'll be pretty close to my original purchase price which also means it's paid for the newer car!

I don't know the answers to any of your questions but the previous owner of my 430 had one fitted. If it would be of any help at all I could take some pics for you? Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

and who'll be able to afford an electric car...not me, so the govt will reduce pollution and in so doing will decrease the amount of traffic on the roads. Then they're going to have to tax something else to compensate for the loss of revenue currently on fuel and road tax...and so it goes on! Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

It said E5 unleaded Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

I think normal unleaded was 95 Ron (95%) and premium was 97 Ron. Therefore I would assume E5 (95%) must be basic unleaded. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Filled up this afternoon. E5, £124.9 at Sainsbury's.- £97! Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

Yes but they don't use petrol they use gasoline....and they drive on the wrong side of the road....[emoji38] Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk

I think it says in the article that we should contact Lexus for confirmation either way. Sent from my EML-L29 using Tapatalk
