  1. Got the second of the two I ordered today, the first came Monday! Two separate packages with one wiper in each postmark from Germany!!! paul m.
  2. Follow this "How To" and get access to the rear of entertainment unit and check All plugs are securely fastened. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-2nd-gen-2006-2013/193739-navigation-hack-diy-part-one-enable-dvd-phonebook-and-mp3-folder-while-moving.html looks a bit daunting but take your time and double read everything and it'll be OK, just done it myself no probs. paul m.
  3. Just one would be nice. As at the moment I'm led to believe it's dealer only unless you want to get tailor made, And if genuine can cost thousands then aftermarket one I guess will be priced accordingly so that might be an incentive for some fabricators to take a punt and produce a pattern. paul m.
  4. Absolutely agree on the pleasurable drive. Quality motor and should have got one ages ago! trying to get up to speed with all the toys! paul m.
  5. Getting on great with my 250, but 'that' black one has just come up again but now for £9950 (wonder if the loose front bumper has been fixed?) paul m.
  6. Get in touch with this Lexus Dealer, selling on EBay so geared up to post bits out to you! http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Lexus-Birmingham-Parts?_trksid=p2047675.l2563 paul m.
  7. 2008-2012 you say? So does this apply to the IS250 and does anyone have details of VIN numbers involved? Cheers paul m.
  8. Good get out by the South Glos Spokesperson. A South Gloucestershire Council spokesperson said: “The Abbey Wood (MOD) roundabout has a very good safety record. Within the last three years, our accident record database does not show any cross-cutting injury accidents occurring within the vicinity of the roundabout junctions. yes you are right there won't be any INJURY accidents but dozens of vehicle damage accidents at these low speeds...nice spin... paul m.
  9. Just checked and if Manual ( 231g Co2) & Reg Before 23 March 2006 then £305. https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables/rates-for-cars-registered-on-or-after-1-march-2001 Co2 values here https://vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk paul m.
  10. Beware of the Manual option...not nice on the tax front >£500 ooouch! And (so I'm led to believe) an altogether different driving experience to the auto. paul m.
  11. Just keep an eye on the master cylinder reservoir to make sure it does not drop too low otherwise you're gonna kick yourself if you entrain any air in the system and end up taking twice as long to do the job and use twice as much fluid! paul m.
  12. Glad you are looking for a 250 now and not the DERV! regarding keys.. Cheers Paul M
  13. "Claiming against me" how exactly? You never changed lane and ask them ( your insurance co who you have paid to work for You ) what exactly you have done wrong to be any way to Blame for this coming together. lane discipline is severely lacking these days especially by immature drivers who don't see it as a major problem!!! paul m.
  14. Ditto on the black over spray on the slam panel, same here, so I take back the comment about it not being very Lexus like!!! paul m.
  15. Looks like the retard was in a hurry to get to McDonalds I reckon.. stand yor ground as you did NOT change lane and tell them (insurance) that you will be willing and most definitely want to go to court and debate this. Paul m.
  16. Hi, I (think I have) sent you a pm about the Po-40. 

    Thanks paul m.

  17. With ref to the second key situation see here ( not good news) so if you have been quoted £150 from a dealer, as I suspect yours should be dealer only, then 'bargain' ??? when I was shopping for my IS250 I was aware of this key pricing problem so with that in mind 'With 2 Keys' was on the 'List of requirements'. paul m.
  18. +1 on that, does not look very Lexus like to me. And yes a 'before' pic would be interesting.
  19. So as the Only way to get a duplicate key is via main dealer, and hand over a kidney, does this mean that the chances of some lowlife taking a shine to my Lexus via a cloning device of some description not going to happen? Paul m.
  20. Mods******* Please correct the title of this thread to read "Battery" and not batery! I blame it on the Local brew here in Spain at the moment but it is a bit embarrassing as I was an Electrician for 10 years!! Cheers Paul M.
  21. Just found this on YouToob and it is news to me and may get you out of a tricky situation one day. (If it's true, you know what the old Interweb can be like!)
  22. I'm not sure Funghi has actually gone and bought this car yet ( well he has'nt actually said he has!) but in my case I did make a concerted effort to steer clear of DERV when looking for my 250 after trawling through this forum of 1st hand owners/drivers. But in the end it's horses for courses and as I will now be doing sub 4000 (non-motorway) miles a year then a 220D was not for me. paul m.
  23. If it's private sell then email the guy, if he is a proud owner he'll wanna tell you all about it or if it is a dealer then ' Dunno mate it is what it is!" Is the sort of response I normally get from dealers when asking them technicals. Question? Is the ISF Multimedia (ML) SatNav anyway different to the 250 SE-L Multimedia (ML) SatNav system? paul m.
