Yes I am the new(ish) owner of Bobbys old motor. I was going to get an Audi A3 but when I saw this IS200 I just fell in love with it and had to have it.

Unusual dark grey paintwork and tint, and the trim is sweet. Nice wheels but cleaning the brake dust off is a pain in the ****. Pic -->http://xiiix.org/096.jpg

It's got 53K on the clock so should be good for a while, having a nightmare with Lexus Aberdeen atm, 2 months they've had it and the only progress they made is the error code, which I knew. 2 months!!

I've had some help in another forum, amazingly I posted the problem and it was anwered in about 10 mins. I'm not a mechanic, but 10mins for a positive diagnostic versus 2 months of Lexus not knowing what was wrong it pretty embarrassing for them I'd say.

I only wish I'd looked earlier, but I wrongly assumed that the *actual dealership* would know what they are doing!

P.S. I found a small tin of Vaselene in the back, wonder what that was all about!

hey, thanks for the welcome.. I've been going slowly insane about all this but the community really lifted my spirits. I thought I was looking at a dead car.
