    Do it ! They are world's apart, if someone says '..well, it's only a IS200 with a few extras' NO IT IS NOT !! I drove a IS200 Sport for two years then changed to a IS300 and never regretted it. Have done 100k miles in it and not one fault with it or has never let me down. Also remember, there aren't many about.

    I agree, give the guy a break. I read a thread on the launch of the F-Sport and it goes... From March 2010 delivery, the IS 250 F-Sport will be launched to further enhance the existing IS series. Using styling cues developed from the IS-F, the new F-Sport derivative will offer a visually attractive product that will appeal to customers looking for a more dynamic package within the IS Series.

    I'm looking to sell (trade in) mine soon. 04 plate, 90k miles, one owner from new (me), MINT/ORIGINAL Spec, Sat Nav, Sunroof, Full LEXUS service history, never been pranged (all original paintwork), etc etc. I have a gut feeling this would sell on the forecourt for between £7k to £8k What do you think???

    I hope the dealership remembers this when I trade my mine in shortly!

    So now we have TWO gaps in the market for Lexus !
  9. IS300
    There currently appears to be a big gap in the engine range when choosing a 'new' Lexus. I currently own a IS300 and would like a replacement of the same power or a bit more, the IS 250 isn't (in my own opinion engine wise) as good as the IS300 and then there is a massive leap to a IS-F 5.0 engine or GS 450 H or RX 450 H. I would like to see petrol engines of say 3.5L or a twin turbo diesel 3.0L What are potential buyers supposed to choose, a BMW or Merc??? I think Lexus may also be loosing old IS & GS customers to Jaguar with their XF model.

    It's even worse in my automatic The car wants to go forwards all the time, makes controlling the car on ice difficult. When you skid in the automatic, you have to keep on the brakes, otherwise as soon as you lift off the engine cuts in and starts pushing you along again! Oh what fun!
  11. IS300
    What are the questions???????
  12. IS300
    Yep! But you've only got to read through the IS250, IS220d forum and Jag are not alone with faults!
  13. IS300
    It's a shame, they do look the Dog's DooDars in the showroom. The only doubt I originally had about it was the 'Pop-Up' bonnet system.
  14. IS300
    Thanks for your help, any chance someone could post a picture of how it should look?

    I seem to have hit on a area that is an 'unknown'
  16. IS300
    To me the XF looks far better than the GS, and by the way you are only able to buy 'new' GS460 hybrids now, nothing else (like GS300's etc), so my local dealership tells me. Going on comments from here, I didn't realise the Jag was soo unreliable?
  17. IS300
    Looking for a new car replacement and really like the look of the new Jaguar XF. Nothing really in the current Lexus range that ticks all the boxes (apart from the IS-F) for me, so looking at the Jag. Anyone else made the same move?
  18. IS300
    Hi I do just that, but it still closes and gets in the way. Its tension has packed-up , just like the boot lid, never pops up anymore! :tsktsk:

    Pressing the SNOW button on my IS300 usually results in a loss of 100 horses !
  20. IS300
    Hi Folks When opening my fuel flap to refuel, I've recently noticed that it wont stay in the open position for long, it seems like it's lost its 'springy-ness'. What I find annoying is that it keeps closing on me while i've got my hand and fuel pump there. Anyone know of a fix???
  21. IS300
    Nope ! The IS250 SE-L just doesn't do it for me i'm afraid. I'm gonna sit on the fence until that something special turns-up
  22. IS300
    In this weeks Auto Express it shows a page on the forthcoming IS250-C and it states that this will be available as either a 2.5 or 3.5 engine. Does this mean a IS350 SE or SE-L will soon follow????? B) B)
  23. IS300
    Totally agree :) Think it's been said before that the 250 is not as quick as the 300 despite what the figures suggest so understand where you're coming from. Is there really that much of a difference between the 17s and 18s? Haven't driven a 250 with 18s on, but when I made the switch on my IS200 I barely noticed any difference.......... Dont ask me how I know ....but the IS250 auto is quicker than the IS300!!!in a straight line standing start.:))) Don't belive it!

    My dealership told me Lexus were going to withdraw the IS220d
  25. IS300
    Hi Roger Thanks for your reply, glad you feel the same way as I do regarding the ride quality of the 18". A downsize to 17" is the best option - maybe Lexus would sell more if the SE-L came with 17" as standard but offered 18" as an optional extra? Your spot-on with the power anaylsis, I too noticed the IS250 had to be revved hard to achieve acceleration compaired to that of my IS300 where the surge of power is instant!
