Going to sound daft, but I’m sure someone said you can use a steam iron and a tea towel to get the creases out
Steam cleaner and microfibre cloth yes, I think a steam iron might be a bit risky...

Nothing too exciting but I did get an issue addressed that's been bugging me since I bought my car. It must be a thing with light colored leather, there's a blue ISF at Lexus Coventry with a lot less miles that has similar wear. Also i finally got round to fitting the Apexi throttle controller which really perks up throttle response in normal mode when set to 'red', drives great, really impressed with it.
Good job with those seats, I have the cream leather and they look fantastic, but the wear is more obvious than the black leather. I assume that was a repair?

The chap who owned this is our very own @Flytvr, the cars looking a little tired after a weekend in Wales. Actually one of my favourite photos of the ISF

Exactly! Cheaper as well.
And probably faster....

So to summarise, don't by a Lexus, get a Corsa 👍

You've got to keep the carbon IMO, fantastic material and looks great.

Little did that Blue car know, but the time being spanked around the Grand Tour track was just a minor warm up for life with @Mark G 😂
The foxes 🦊 of Wiltshire run for cover now....

Only the ones that can't afford an RCF/GSF 😉
Estate agents cannot afford the RCF, GSF because 40% of their salary goes to good causes... So they're stuck with the old ISF.

I thought all estate agents drove ISFs?
Na, they walk to work mainly once they've visited the animal sanctuary and helped old people cross the road....

No. You will look like an estate agent who couldn't afford a Golf R 😉
As for reliability... 5 year warranty helps but also fairly sure they beat VAG group hatches in various surveys (accuracy TBD).
Did someone say estate agent? 😉

My daughter has the same in pink. It's shared with a scary spider so hardly used.
It needs new brakes soon. You got some from ECP before? ;-)
The manufacturer 'Little Tykes' in my opinion is comparable to Tesla, its reliability and green credentials are fantastic. I would check the Little Tykes Owners Club for help with the spider, perhaps it's an known fault 😉

Fantastic trip, had a bit of everything. Weaving through the London streets, open roads down to the coast, washed down with coffee and cake... ☺.

Guys, the time finally came today to let the ISF go to a new home. I have loved every minute of ownership but there are lots of cars I want to own and only so much time in which to do it.
The car that has replaced it is a 2018 civic type r and although first impressions are epic, the ISF will always have a soft spot in my heart.
Thank you to all of the forum friends I have made and good luck for the future. I will still be dipping in from time to time as the banter is just too good to miss!!
Cheers guys.
Marcus
All the best Marcus, your input will be missed, pop back from time to time 👍. Enjoy the new motor!

Just a thought... Are the RCF, ISF, GSF.... designed for the track, or just developed on the track? As most cars are. Such a small percentage are tracked, so perhaps Lexus wanted more comfort stuff (weight) which would make the car more popular with average Joe... 🤔

Good for you for trying to warm others about your old car, didn't need to 👍. Hopefully this will reach enough potential buyers but some poor sod will inherit the problem..... 😔
