Description
Your chance to purchase an appreciating classic, in outstanding condition.
These are the cars you will look back on, in years to come and say " I should have bought that when they were less than 10k " These SC's are a true testimony to the Lexus ethos of building the best car possible, and then working out the price. As Mr Clarkson found out these are not at there best going around a race circuit, but for our UK roads they are perfect.
The Lexus 4.3 V8 is one of the most reliable engines ever manufactured, completely unstressed and de tuned to just under 300 bhp. The old fashioned 6 speed automatic transmission is likewise, unstressed and reliable.
I spent 3 months looking for the right SC before I found this one and originally wanted the metallic red. As it turned out I am really glad this Pearlescent Grey one was available, I think it so suits the car and the pearl blue and silver in the paint really zing when the sun is on it.
The bodywork is really good with only the usual paint blemish on the alloy retractable rood. The interior is in a league of its own with the cream hide remains handsome and supple, I feed the seats every month. The woodwork is unmarked and original as is everything else on the car, nothing has been played with and everything, and I do mean everything works as Lexus intended. The wheels have no kerb rash but one is showing signs of a previous refurb, as I noticed there are a couple of small areas where the paint has lifted showing the original paint. You would no notice this from 3' away.
I have a folder with the complete vehicle provenance, lots of invoiced and the Lexus service book.
When I purchased this SCit was to be my forever car so, my local garage agreed to completely go over the car and carry out and work that was required, this included a complete service with brake flush and axle oil, new spark plugs and filters, as can be seen from the invoice.
