Summer vs. Winter tread patterns...

One just come up on the ISF owners page of f/book..... If they will post, it's a bargain...

I second that, you could probably upgrade to a younger car with the LSD for £4/5k.

One on ebay for £75 + postage. Might be an option and getting it painted. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F192411495120

Not a fan of the matt paint, agree that they look like they've had a cheap wrap. On a positive.... I did like the white leather sofa with the red trim in the background and I think I spotted a slice of battenburg on the coffee table ☺...

Out of everyone's hands, whichever date it is I'm sure there will be a good turn out. I'm not fussed about the LFA but don't want to miss out on the free t shirts....

28th or 29th of April please ratty either side and I'm snookered 😉

Thanks for pursuing ratty,😉. Can you please confirm to the forum if the discount is 60 cakes or £60.... 🤔

I might get one, if it's good enough for Shonky..... 😉

They got their inspiration from this....

Brilliant 👍

Once you've finished with an old ISF seat, they make a wonderful feature in any landscaped garden....

This is the beginning of the end, I'm going to start stocking up on the duracell AA's ready for the rush. This is why a wanted a V8 now before the government make them unreachable to Joe bloggs.

As there's such a niche market for these cars many owners part ex their ISF's when it's time to move on. The dealers then add on a huge premium and are prepared to hold on and play the long game, in most cases. The best buys are private sales, with peace of mind of the Lexus warranty but these are rare to find. As soon as it's in the hands of the dealer, you can be sure of a 20%+ premium.

My little boy falls asleep faster in the ISF than the family car, they love the V8 rumble.....😉

Will these be switchable 🐀?

Spoke to Paul, very nice chap but the development cost is just going to make these too rich IMO. It would be circa £4k and a week of the car off the road, which is just nuts. The only considerable saving would be a group buy of 10+ units which is unlikely. I still have a couple of options for a switchable system which I will continue to investigate......

Would they consider manufacturing a valved exhaust for the ISF 🐀? 🤔

Classic in the eyes of the masses, none. Classics in the eyes of the Lexus enthusiast, they are all worthy....

I've looked into the ISF Meisterschaft exhaust and would be very interested, the $4000 dollar price tag put me OFF but great sounding jekyll and hyde exhaust IMO.

Just watched this episode, I think she would enjoy this forum, she's well know for posting excellent videos on the internet..... 😉

I prefer to cool the seat naturally using the ice from my old chest freezer, applied just before any hot summer drives.

I think cloth is better as you say, but leather looks better imo, and doesn't Mark or discolour as quickly as cloth.

Maybe you should take up the task of knocking up a ISF/IS250 hybrid? Here's a replica bumper and some badges.... Only problem is the lack of pace, it won't be plausible as an ISF if it takes 2 weeks to get from 0-60, so here's my suggestion....

My previous 56 plate is250 had heated and cooled seat, the ISF doesn't. It was quite a nice touch but the Mrs did used to say it made a noise and sounded like being sat on an aeroplane (cabin pressurisation) 😂. The ISF seats are different in their construction, so perhaps the clearance wasn't enough to add the fan/blower, or there are some reliability issues with the fan so they didn't bring it into the ISF. I did think the same thing at first but I don't miss the cooled seats in the ISF. If all else fails, if you drive fast enough in the ISF with the windows open you do get a lovely breeze throughout the whole car, even on a hot day 😉
