Well it seems to be a done deal.....
Well it seems to be a done deal.....
Engine wise, as long as you give it an oil change max every 10,000 miles then you should be ok. The EGR valves do clog up on them, but they are very easy to remove, clean and refit. Some people block it off by making a gasket out of a coke can, but i dont know how that will affect things with the remap
Dont worry about what people say, the astra is still a nice car. The engine is really good, especially once remapped. The only thing i thought was wrong with the MK5 was the seats were a bit hard, nowhere near as nice as the IS200 seats.

lexus value to dealer is £7,500
negative equity is £2,000
My monthly budget is £180 which x 60 months is £10,800,
minus negative equity is £8,800
minus typical apr of 9% is roughly £1,900??
which leaves my grand total budget of £6,900...............apparently to lexus this will get me

I don't know a lot about this stuff but this doesn't have a huge amount to do with the dealer does it? Can't you arrange directly with Lexus finance and cut the dealer out?

Carpediem need the dealer to find the car though.........i think aha
Yeah that's what I meant, can't you find the car and then agree the finance deal with LFS?
If the dealer's involved they're going to want to take a cut themselves........
