So what kind of competition would a car like that have here in Ireland? I saw a blue RC-f in Dublin ages ago and thought it was an odd one to go for over the likes of an M4, but I'm all about left field choices myself so my hat goes off to the owner!

Mainstream choices would be the A5 Coupe or 4 Series Coupe, but pound for pound, you'd get a lot less in them than you do in the Lexus.

I was quoting this driver a Mustang 2.3T before this caught his eye - couldn't get the figures on the Mustang to work as resale is an even bigger unknown than the Lexus, so erred on the side of caution big time with the Mustang.

That Lexus is an absolute beaut.

What did you get? Mazda 6?

Nah, way to big, got the 3, back to 2wd again...after 8years :eek:

weekaizer · 15-09-2016 04:47PM

My parents just bought this. Top spec sol model with heated seats, 17" alloys and rear tinted windows.
I put two coats of collinite on it and changed plates today.
Have to say i think it's a stunning upgrade compared to older versions.
Great to drive and I think it looks great too.

bear1 · 15-09-2016 05:00PM

Looks nice, I'd probably put the standard plates back if it were me though.

CianRyan · 15-09-2016 05:02PM

The plates suit the surrounding to be fair.

Voodoomelon · 15-09-2016 07:10PM

Nice car, plate makes it look 10 years older though.

colm_mcm · 15-09-2016 07:52PM

Yellow plate on the back?

YbFocus · 15-09-2016 08:56PM

It's going to take a while but for the last three days I have been really trying to enhance the paint on the car. Roughly two or three hours a night focusing on one panel

I am decontaminating the panel, compounding and two stage polishing.
Sealing with Pentawax.

So the two front wings and bonnet are done.

It's not as clean as Foxhole's but god is it not glossy and damn near perfect

Another 11 days of panels to go

Not quite, if it were a Dublin car I would never put them plates on but DL reg cars everywhere up here with them, definately a regional thing!

Front end Friday

Some minor adjustments were made following on advise from some lawds about going the straight pipe route...

YbFocus · 16-09-2016 05:51PM

Far freer flowing and really has a better top end now!

Cheensbo · 16-09-2016 06:27PM

Put a second one on it and you've a grand wheelbarrow

colm_mcm · 16-09-2016 06:40PM

That's the resale value gone.

bear1 · 16-09-2016 07:18PM

The 156 has aged very very well. Especially in the right colour.

Noccy_Mondy · 16-09-2016 07:38PM

For the weekend that's in it. Up Mayo!!

All kitted out!

Foxhole Norman · 16-09-2016 07:50PM

I'll be going USDM square plate on the back of my e46 tomorrow...it would just not suit the front of it though. Imho...

Sure you may scrap it now, 100k was bad enough. :cool:

TrailerBob · 16-09-2016 08:54PM

Today, it hit 280,000 miles, flew through the DOE without so much as a 20 note in the ashtray, and kept working for its supper. If only everything in life was as reliable

Voodoomelon · 16-09-2016 08:56PM

She looks clean for 280! Are the tyres low for the fields?

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000 · 16-09-2016 09:05PM

An oldie, but a goodie...
