Hi Pobrown! Two new owners in the last week then! I nearly bought a Kensington Green IS, but the other half preferred blue, so blue it was! Anyway, welcome mate, I dont feel like the only newbie now...

It is an awesome colour!!! ^_^

<geek>Hey aido, notice you've got a mac running OSX, and H/K soundsticks - sweet! </geek> sorry bout that little diversion! :D

The service manager from Toyota did say it was a common problem on the IS series, mumbling something about compromises on modern cars, but I did wonder whether the common problem was his unwillingness to have a decent go at undoing the bulb in the workshop!!! (I only had the pliers from the boot to try and lever it off ) The thing I'm worried about now is the nearside foglight which I reckon would be a lot more crudded than the offside one... I'll probably get Lexus to change the bulb when that one goes tho.. and anyway I never want to undo another of those units in my life! (how hard are those two retaining nuts to get off??? :tsktsk: )

Thanks D3fy! I'm just going out to get a memory card for my Digital Camera and I'll take some piccys (Thats another excuse to drive the car!!)... p.s. anyone else here suffered from seized front fog bulbs?

Hi Everyone! Finally got my Lexus! Ended up getting a 2000 Royal Sapphire IS200 S Auto (gotta love that cruise control!). It has the Styling pack with large, raised spoiler (not the lip spoiler) on the back, 18's and Full Leather! I have to say, I'm totally over the moon with it and can't stop making any excuse to the missus to go and drive somewhere or even go and 'get something from the car' just to admire it!!! Only one problem so far, the offside front fog didnt work and Lexus couldn't replace the bulb as it had seized in the lamp unit, so I have to wait til next week till I can get a new unit. Only Pic I've got so far...
