Thanks for the info pepole, just waiting to see if it's the alternator or the ECU, if it is the ECU i don't think i'll bother with it as i doubt i'll find one in a scrapyard over here! :(

Does this club have a stand at any car shows? I'm in the ford XR owners club (never leave my boyracer roots!) and i show my MK1 XR2 from time to time, but i've never seen any lexus's at any shows! ---------- As i said previously, when my father asked what was wrong with it the toyota mechanic said it needed a new part in the alternator and it had a drain on the battery, BUT when my father asked his friend (the owner) what was wrong with it, he said he was told by the toyota garage that the engine management/ECU had a 'un-cureable' fault on it? :sniff:

Thanks for the quick reply, i'll find out more details about it and i might give you a shout. Thanks again, Wez

Hi there, As you's can probably tell, i'm new here, and i haven't got a windom, yet. I'm basically looking for any info on them and common problems with them, why? - Because i can get one for Free (well, almost) My father works in Belgium and his friend has a Windom over there that he no longer wants, it has a few faults but he said i can have it for the shipping cost of getting it back over here. I'm awaiting more details about it from my father, but he thinks it's J reg (1991? - was originally from the UK) and he knows it dark metallic green and it's got Windom 3.0G on the boot badges. The faults are: The battery goes flat after 3 days if not uesd and it needs a new part in the alternator according to a Toyota garage in france (wether the 2 faults are associated i don't know) I was wondering if anybody here knew what the fault may be, and anythig else for me to look out for, really i'm not too worried if it has had a hard life, beggars can't be choosers. Also what toys do they have in? Leather etc...? I'm used to my 2.9 Ford Scorpio - more buttons than bhp.:sniff: Thanks for any info, at least iknow what it looks like now after looking in the gallery on this site. Wez.
