Styling alloy I reckon. The T12 spokes are too thin and make the wheel look smaller.

Would something have snapped, worked loose to cause that do you think? I shall have to put it up on the ramps later then

I would ask to see the evidence mate, sounds iffy to me

I will explain as best I can A heavy rattle only apparent under load i.e moving forward or reversing, no noise present if in neutral and blipping the throttle, and clears by 1,800rpm. Noise appears to be coming from bottom of car, anywhere between front footwell and engine is as close as I can point at the moment. Car has a lot of vibration at 60mph+ and most apparent in footwell and coming through the seat - no steering wheel movement. Any ideas anyone????

Friday at about 5.30pm turning right at the traffic ligths - crossroads of the Wokingham road and Widerness Road. Asian chap, you nodded, as did I :)

he's got slate up for sale with coral in the title lets get him ← He's got lots of them and they are brand new apparently, probably used them for the fish tank that was in the glove box :P

He wasn't very receptive to that. Apparently I am an anoying ******wit as well as a geek and I should **** off and shove my head up my arse, where it belongs , before he does it for me. Now that was not very nice was it :D. He hung up shortly after I reminded him that I have his phone number and email address

Don't forget, it's the only Lexus on ebay with a full history as well. Anyone know how much bhp a TRD oil cap will give me, anything less than 15 and I won't buy one :D

ebay Didn't know an exhaust and an oil cap could boost an Altezza to 250+ Bhp with a 5 sec 0-60, did you And this monkey: ebay Wish I had one of them, hang on a minute........I do.....along with everyone else driving a manual IS200 :P

Went along this afternoon to have a look following an invite I had. Booked a 2 hour test drive in 2 weeks time as there were none avialable today. Certainly looks a nice car.

I had one for a weekend when my car was in for a service last year so shouldn't be a problem matey

Just as well it's commission month I suppose. :)

The main cat is fooked I think Mat, rattles quite a bit. Was going to get under the car today but go stuck doing the garden. I have got the day off tomorrow so shall stick it on the ramps and see what state it's really in

I fink my cat is failing/dead on my car. As Aido, I too am going through a lot of petrol doing chuff all miles. Power is most certainly down and there are lots of rattles coming from under the car. CEL has also come on a couple of times and the car dies under hard acceleration but starts immediately when you turn the key again.

Go by age 17 - Nova 1.2 Merit 17 - After closing the Staines bypass off for a day in the Nova I got a Rover 213S 18 - Rover 216 GTi, which I bent the crank on so put forged internals in it and turbo'd it. Then went to get insured and ended up paying 3,800 pounds 20 - Hyundai Coupe SE, loved that car 21 - Williams Clio 22 - Fiat Coupe Turbo - pile of :tsktsk: 22 - Renalut Laguna - Couldn't fit my Daughter in the Fiat - really comfortable but then like all french cars it fell to bits :) 23 - Rover 620 Ti, engine went pop after 6 months and only 46,000 miles 24 - Saab 2.3 Turbo convertible 25 - Moved house, sold the Saab and ran around in the girlyfrieds Mazda 323F for a couple of months then purchased the Lexus

PM me your number matey and I wil text you one

Following my redundancy from the company in Chertsey last October, I'm now the European Inside Sales Manager for a WAN Acceleration company in Reading.

................and the limited slip diff, two tone steering wheel, tinted rear windows, alloy scuff plates and pedals, 10mm lower springs and spoiler.

2000 (X) 104,000 miles

Don't like it at all but voted who cares as my next car is not going to be a lexus anyway

I wanted to like this car so much. All I can say is YUK YUK YUK YUK YUK. Like has been said so many times before, it looks like a mix of loads of different cars - accord, bmw, GS, alfa, mazda, etc and has lost any identity the original IS had. Still, all good things come to an end as they say.

And we all wonder why our insurance premiums rise each year Hope everything gets sorted quickly alajota
