Mods:...WIM geometry setup & fine tune, K&N Air filter, Stainless steel A/C rings, Brodit phone kit, Stainless steel clock surround, B&M Shortshifter & LED Domelight, Maplight & Sun Visors, OEM Chrome exhaust tip, OEM rubber bootliner, Fan type windscreen washer jets, LS430 Side repeaters, OEM LE grille, OEM cargo net, Front OEM armrest
Personally, I'd rather buy a accident free car (older car?) instead of a crashed car and tyring to repair it.

There's something weird going on though as on my screen that car is clearly gold, can't be confused at all with silver or grey as some of you are saying :tongue_smilie:
It's not damietta quartz either, that's a greeny gold, this is the proper gold - think it was called amberley gold or something like that.......personally I hate gold with a vengeance but I think that was saraj's preferred colour so this car could be a winner as long as the front end damage is minor.

It doesn't have satnav, only 05s had nav as standard (and this one has the little lever to open the box and no satnav controller by the gearbox)

Kodiak Sky is a sort of bronzey-gold though, isn't it ?

Kodiak sky is a silvery grey (very similar unsurprisingly to BMWs "silver grey"), there's not really any gold in it at all.

Yep not sure on the name, but that or a very similar colour did exist on the IS200, and from the pics it looks like that car is in that colour.

12-01-2018, 09:00 AM #75One of the paint codes for the IS200 whose name I couldn't work out (for this thread) was 4R4. Looking at this again, it seems to be "Savannah Metallic" or "Savannah Beige" in some places, and it could be the colour in question.

@Steve: That could be the one actually, I really can't remember what it was called.

Maybe he was the reason they did the limited edition yellow one then?

Quite a lot of damage then? Yep prob best to walk away then as you could easily end up spending the same as just buying a non-damaged one.

yh thats what i thought, my cousin tried to convince me in saying it would cost about 400-500 to repair, but that would not be a proper repair,so not going to bother.
If one came up like this in a older reg like 1999 or 2000, and same amount of damage depending on price and history i would be interested.

Really? Did he justify how that could cost £4-500 to repair as it doesn't look possible?
