Having seen a silver car at my local breakers to provide a door and wing i think i may try to fix this. Upon closer inspection only door and wing dented. Just need to get someone to assess what is damaged with the steering and what requires replacing. "GJ02" may return to the road?? The Alfa GTV in the 2nd pic is my other car...also 6 cylinder 🙂

ok, so finally got round to posting some pics...unfortunately 2 are not of the kind i was intending due a careless incident earlier today. My fault but no-one hurt. Result one rather damaged Lexus. Scraped/dented down whole nearside and bent steering! Would love another but in the short term we'll see. There are 2 near me for sale though. Off for a couple of beers now.

Hello Lexus forum I purchased an '02 IS200 SE last august to replace an Alfa 147 (great little car). I have really enjoyed the IS so far, really comfy and smooth drive. Great having a sunroof again and the heated seats have been most welcome this winter. First car I've bought for many years that did not require a new thermostat. I did find the oil filter very awkward to replace, prob most awkward I've yet done on any car. The parcel shelf speaker/head unit replacement guide on here was great to find, Vibe Black Airs fitted with homemade MDF spacers and Sony double din head unit. The car is currently on 3 wheels and an axle stand for front brake caliper replacement......BUT......I have been stupid enough to lock the key in the boot (Doh!) and tomorrow will be trying the coathanger trick as suggested on here with the help of my neighbour. Wish me luck. Also found today the nice little plastic trims on the rear end of the sills that have perfectly trapped far more mud than had they not been there. Now removed and wheel arches to be cleaned out. I'm sure this forum will be just as helpful as previous make forums i have been on and has already been most helpful :) ttfn
