Description

Selling my Lexus ISF, I've had this car since May 2022 and have loved the V8 noise. Gutted that I have to sell this but I need to be able to fund some other projects. Before my ownership it had been serviced at a Lexus dealer, I had MOTs carried out at a Toyota dealer but this year I was unable to book a slot in time so went to a local private garage instead. Since owning it I've carried out oil changes within the service time of 10,000 miles, as I have access to a workshop. I'll be including the Oil Filter tool and genuine oil filter for the next owner, the last oil change was done less than 1500 miles ago. More than happy to carry out an oil change for the next owner as well, at no extra cost. Filter & tool included in goodies box with the car regardless. Tyres are Hankook Evo 3s in standard size for good wet weather performance which is needed with the horsepower from this car. Until August last year it was used daily but there is still very little rust underneath, '24-25 winter it was parked on the driveway. April last year the car had new brake hardware all round (pins, anti-rattle shims, discs, pads). Brake calipers were painted pink, which actually suits the all grey exterior. Still subtle with the rims. Has been modified lightly with a custom rear section (backbox) to replace the stock fake exhaust tips, this also helps avoid the common issue of exhaust gases getting pulled into the cabin from the boot. It's not extremely loud but pays justice to the engine in this car. Tips are removable so standard Lexus ones can be fitted if preferred. It's also got 15mm spacers all round, makes the car look a bit more aggressive. Inside there's heated seats, Sat Nav, and Mark Levison sound system. Really comfy and just relaxing to cruise along motorways in. Due to this being an early 2008 model, one of the first 91 in the country, it didn't have a Bluetooth radio. I've fitted a AUX Bluetooth adapter, and quad-lock mount with wireless charger in the central vent. It's definitely a subtle car, unique, and rare, with only around 180 in the UK. This was the main reason I bought this car. A couple bad points; The bonnet paint is rough, has just deteriorated since I've owned it. I have tried polishing it before but a machine polish might be needed. Front bumper is a little rough in spots, with some small cracking by the wing on the drivers side. Mainly came about due to using the car daily for my first two years of ownership. Some kerbing on the rims.
