I followed one home from work today. Just another bloody Le.... Oh wait.....

Seems they come with twin turbos...... Sleepers? I would.

 

It's a GS in Primark clothes and eating Asda yellow label knock-out stuff. Fuck the M&S Image of the Lexus. Why have butter when margarine is half the price?ETC.

Think of it as a 4 door Supra Turbo.......... and another one of those cars they SHOULD have sold here. 8)

The Lexus brand didn't exist in Japan until fairly recently.

The gen1 Lexus IS200 was also known as the Toyota Altezza.

and Altezzas could be had with a turbo 2.0 four pot instead of the six pot we got.

I've been looking at Aristos on the Bay for the last few months (the later shape ones). They seem to fetch a great deal of money - not found a decent one within my budget yet. In fact I haven't got an Aristo budget any more, 'cos I spent it on the SVX and the Jag.
