Well I will be on Monday :thumbup::clap:

 

Just been and paid a deposit on this

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1996-LEXUS-GS300-GREY-/250951121204?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3a6dda3934#ht_500wt_1287

 

Just test driven it, its bloody marvellous! Ok so its an auto, and that's not my fave way to roll, but hey, its a 3l V6 Lexus!

 

Its mint, really good condition, full Lexus service history, been owned by the same bloke for the last 5 years, his mate owned it before then. Gorgeous car! Brand new MOT on it today too.

 

Just need to fix the power steering pump on the Omega and sell that asap.

 

Monday afternoon cannot come soon enough. Took it on a fab test drive, floored it on the dual carriage way, so nice to feel a bit of power again :tt1:

You know you really should buy that J300 NUS right now if you can get it for £250 you will only regret it.

 

It'll have to wait til I sell the Omega, but if its still for sale, then I think I'll stick it on my Lexus and sell the plate on there for whatever I can get, and then keep it for my next Zed :cool2:

Good luck with this one,looks really smart and bet it drives beautifully.

Liking the private plate you've found Jane, that's a definite NEED TO BUY for you I reckon! It's just TOO good combining both the Lexus, a Z and your forum name, can't get more perfect than that!! I like the NZ private plate system, you're not restricted to letters and numbers, so Rose bought a plate that literally said "MODDED" while we were out there. Think she still has the physical plate somewhere :D

You go through cars quicker than Chelsea change their manager :tt2:

 

Looks a good buy :drool: and from the houses in the pic looks like it is from the nicer part of 'boro?

It's not a V6 ;)

2jzge, the car is basically a supra with four doors, i like them, used to have a aristo, a gs300 with two turbos, loved it

 

Looks fab Jane, only down side is the fuel bill..lol had one in 2000 with a fuel card as my company car.. couldnt pass a garage... But what a car... been looking at the new hybrids..

 

When did you say you were getting it? Ill pop round for a look if thats okay?

Thanks its an absolutely fantastic drive

Getting it tomorrow (Monday) Kev, feel free to pop over. I'm on earlies all this week apart from Thursday, it'll be good to have a catch up

Didn't realise you'd had one before, it was just *such* a lovely drive

Isn't the Supra engine a straight 6 as opposed to a V?

It still looks fairly modern from the front in my opinion, silver is a good colour on that car too

Cool car, wish you many miles of happy motoring kiddo !:cool2:

Always liked the look of them. Pity the ones since became ugly.
