Shame to hear that paul, but you got good money for the IS. Boyd has whats looks like a nice tech 1 sport for sale at the moment.

have you been to see the Lexus yet?
mileage is good for it's year & for it having 3 keepers.. check for any wobble at speed if you can, there bad for prop shaft bushes wearing.. did you get any cash of it, bearing in mind what work you say needs done? also i'd remove the tinted windows, they make the car look "a tad dodgy"
HPI it and get the ref No off the V5/log book and go check it's mot & mileage history on DVLA: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/motoring/ow ... g_10020539

They are great cars, I've got an IS200 as well, same colour but with the full sport kit on it, 78k with FSH, mainly from Lexus and one from BMW. Possibly selling it, sent you a PM with detail 318isPMK.
