320touring Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Is the timing belt due?I'd imagine it probably is- I've not changed it and no receipt with the car to say it has been done. Can any previous shiter owner say if they have done it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Oh well, it cost nothing to ask! Roffle? I had a drive of an LS400 that was to be bangered a couple of years ago, so I'd like to get my hands on a better example! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it, the HILUX manual box from a certain model enables conversion - in fact I know of a hilux receiving a v8 transplant:) There was a sticker on the engine saying the belt had been done when I had it... ...in the year 2000 at around 70k.At least it ain't original:) rantingYoof 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BavarianRetro Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 My pal has a lovely JRG LS460 he bought new in 2009 for £78000. It has done 40 odd thousand miles and has a full service history at the dealers. He is looking to trade it in against the new sports thing. They offered him £9000 - which I thought was quite a lot, but £69000 in depreciation alone in 8 years. £8500 a year. £700 a month in depreciation. You can buy virtually the same car here for one month's depreciation. 320touring, Supernaut, barefoot and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got one of those for sale for, give or take, the same money. Interesting, that's all I'll say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
