Hi there guys. Just thought I would introduce myself briefly here. I am currently looking to purchase an IS200. I have my eye on a fair few that look like a good deal, mainly 2001 cars with about 30k on them for around £10-11k.
I've had a read of the buyer's guide on this site and it was very informative. I'm aware of the alloy corrosion being the main issue with the cars, but most of the ones I have viewed have had new ones recently fitted. Anything else I should look out for in particular?
Lastly, if you dont mind me asking, how old are you guys? Im 19 (nearly 20 now) but my parents make me feel like I'm too young for a car of this type - however, I just see it as good sense. There literally isn't any other car that you can get that is as well spec'd as an IS for as little money and as safe. I'm very impressed with things I have heard about the Lexus dealers too (including their reputation on the JD power surveys). My only concern with cost is the fuel consumption, but im prepared to make one or two sacrifices for a car I love!
Thanks.
