    fitted new front and rear wipers and fitted a set of michelin cross climates all round...amazing change in grip, handling and reduction in stopping distances. well recommended.

    thank you to you both. these IS's seem pretty sewn up in terms of fiddling with! However, Im 49 this year so really i should be getting more concerned how easy a car is to get in and out of :)

    Lee, I haven't owned a 200 - the 300 kind of found me within 2 hours of selling a BMW 535d. The extra snort of the IS300 is welcome though. I'd not want to have a less powerful car tbh, esp as re-chipping them isn't an option. As a result of zero ecu power upgrades being open to me i'm going down the route of getting the best tyre/geometry set up and possibly a KN air filter.

    Forgot to add, i'm just going through the same motions of updating the cd/tape (!) stuff but, have decided to see if I can hide DAB/handsfree/iphone music connectivity behind what is already there as I am getting into the 'old school' look!

    Hi Bluesman i meant to add, I did some research on Profess; the company appears to be rather different from the one you possibly used? Quite a few annoyed people out there which looked disconcerting :(

    still drawing blanks with lpg shops....why have someone answer the phone who can't talk about your products and only book you in ...?

    Hi All, I'm re-booting my new Lexus in the forthcoming weeks but realise the tyre set-up needs careful consideration on these cars (shock horror, Toyota got something wrong????!!). I live in Norfolk so miles from WIM but noticed on their website they have fixed settings for Lexus they appear to have available to members? If so, where might I find them on here please? many thanks in advance Rob

    Hi I'm toying fitting an K&N air filter to my late 2004 Sport Cross. Anyone else fitted one? Worth it? Ty in advance.

    Hi. Im new here too. I collected my IS300 Sport Cross the weekend just gone. My observations on it are as follows: 1. engine very smooth 2. handling is 'tighter' than the 535d i recently sold 3. build quality pretty damn good for an early noughtie car 4. straight six is more Jaguar grace and pace as opposed to BMW growl. I would expect the 200 to be similar just down on horses. 5. car handling for both will be excellent.

    Ty Mike. Wise words - buyer beware for sure!

    Next question will be, Im based right on the Easterly tip of East Anglia - the world of LPG installation looks murky to say the least so are there any concrete recommendations of a company closer to me over this way or is it Profess every time? Thank you!
  16. Robk
    Ha..self appointed bodies....we had a few of those in the world of motorcycle training...........thank you for the heads up. Rob

    Many thanks for this. Looks like I will be checking in for a Zavoli system in a month or so once I've collected my new car and checked it runs ok for a month or so! Rob

    Hi All, Newbie here. Am taking delivery of a low miles IS300 '04 Sport Cross on Monday. It's looking to be a 3/4 year keeper so am up for an LPG conversion to be installed. I have read old posts on here where it turned into a bit of a bun fight which I'm really not after on my first toe dip. So, if anyone can reply on how their car has run on an LPG conversion and who are good for the initial installation, I'd be very much appreciated. Many thanks, Rob

    Thanks Mike I happened to notice you are LPG'd..am assuming Lexus engine happy bunny with it asap already considering the conversion for my one too? Rob

    Hi All Im Rob, deposit placed on a '05 25k mile Sport Cross I am collecting Monday. Im coming to Lexus via 3 good years of BMW 5 Series Touring (E61's inc 535d) but with am impending move to a city, have cashed in the Beemer, set my budget at £5k and bingo, found the Lexus within 2 hours of other car going - so it must be meant to be ! Have to ask..why are Lexus so cheap 2nd hand??? I am pretty sure I will run this car up to the 100k mile mark as I know they are pretty bullet proof so see an LPG conversion the cards too. Should be fun!
