Hello from dodgydave

Hi everyone,

I've only just discovered the Outlaw Jap Club.

I have been a member on another well known Lexus forum since October 2007 and although I've posted on there a few times I must admit I have mainly read and learnt from others.

I wondered where a lot of the original members from that other forum had disappeared to; I knew that DJ Wozza had been banned along with a couple of others but never knew the reason why. I can see now that there are a lot of familiar names on here.

I have only just discovered this club from a recent post by Mr Mole, who it seems is now also being singled out and victimised by that other club.

Anyways to introduce myself:-

I originally had a 2000, IS200 SE, manual in Granite Sky which I had for about three and half years. I carried out a few little mods over the time I had it but nothing too big.



In November last year with the Lex approching 10 years old and 100k miles I decided to get a newer model so I bought a 2004, IS200 SE Auto in Antimony Blue with just under 50k miles.



Since getting the latest Lex I've carried out a few subtle mods, boot spoiler from sport model, auto-close mirrors mod, sport grill and just last week-end I fitted a set of rear parking sensors.

Well that's enough of me babbling on for now. I hope to gain a lot of knowledge from the forum and hopefully pass any that I may have onto other members.

Dave

Anyone having broadband problems today?

by toxo, 17-02-2018, 10:45 AM

There's a big fire (and consequently now a rather large flood) in a central BT node in Paddington, which is affecting broadband connectivity in 437 exchanges throughout the country (approximately 37,500 customers).

Suprisingly this includes exchanges up to 100 miles north of London hock:

Infiniti G37

by parthiban, 16-02-2018, 01:42 PM

Was browsing the Infiniti site as the G37 looks like an interesting prospect but was surprised to see that they've priced it at £40k! Even more ludicrous pricing than the IS250C - at least Lexus have established themselves as a luxury brand in the UK and can sort of demand higher prices but it's a brave strategy for Infiniti.

Ok on spec it's cheaper than a 330i, but for an unknown brand it's an odd move to think they can jump right in on pricing - only reason I can think of is maybe they're trying to slot it in between the 370Z and GT-R but I think these things are going to depreciate really badly.........

But that could be good news if it's actually a good car :thumbup:
