New car on way - James S - 16-11-2018
Just got back from garage, where I have put a deposit down on a car!
Gone with another IS200, same T-reg 1999, but this time is a SE-Nav model. Winner! Very excited.
Car has done 109k and got full service history. Had the timing belt done at 75k and comes with 12months MOT and 6month Tax. The car is in mint condition, and started first time, even though its been sat for a few months.
Pick up the car on the 4th or 5th. So counting down the days till then!
Very excited, have got the wheels, Arbs and Exhaust off my old one, unfortunatly couldn't get the coilovers off in time. So will be saving up for them and hopefully get some mid way through next year.
Just got to sort some insurance out now................

Have you looked into the buy back value of your old car ?

gutted you couldnt get the coilovers off, could you not ask the insurance company if they'll at least let you know where its being scrapped?

The car has gone to a company called Co-part, and they won't let you even bid on the car unless you take out a years membership.
So just going to bite the bullet, and get some new ones when I have the cash.
Are the Discs expensive? If not will just convert it to a dvd screen or something.
Defo a snow roof in this weather. But will be glad of it come summertime!
