10 years on and back to an is200 lol - parthiban - 22-08-2020
Predator Get out in one and you'll fall in love. They are stunning, but it's really easy to forget youre in something so special, simply because they are such a pleasure to drive. Once you get out on the open road, it's a beast and really gets your heart pumping!Haha, I have no doubt about that, hence not driving one until I'm ready for the inevitable purchase that will follow :biggrin:
Predator Woo, hoo. I'm on my way to view and hopefully buy my is200Awesome, good luck!

Thanks guys,
Sad to say, it was a waste of £100 train ticket!
The bodywork was shocking, the rad was ruined and had signs antifreeze all over the engine, the nav didn't work, the sports grill was a cheap plastic knock off, both the grill and TRD fromt lip were sprayed with a can and looked terrible, plus too much more to mention.
I'll crack on With the search

Bless ya
Working around the 2k mark. Found a lovely silver one with nav and from a dealer, for just £1,500. It was a trade in. I held off so I could view this one because it was grey and with the TRD lip. The silver one has now sold!
I've seen a lovely black one. Nice enough guy but he won't go below 2.5 and I won't go about 2.3 lol. No nav either.
Plenty come and go though

What sort of mileage spec etc you after?
10 years on and back to an is200 lol - Predator - 22-08-2020
In an ideal world, sport with the TRD kit, below 130k miles, 51 plate or obviously newer. Nav would be great but not the most important thing. Grey 1st choice, black 2nd choice, blue 3rd choice. If it ticks all those boxes, I would also consider silver.
Very good service history but I'm happy to service it now. If its over 2k it must have had a FULL cambelt service (not just the belt) no more than 40k ago.
Thanks, budd
