1997 Lexus LS400 V8 car Sussex SOLD

[datman]

Nice colour combo, very clean inside including the engine bay and boot. Starts and runs beautifully, high miles. Does drive but currently no power steering. The belt is broken. Can't therefore test power steering or alternator etc. MOT has run out but I can't see anything obvious that it would fail on.



Private plate is included

















Prompt collection from RH19 please. No timewasters. (That'll put em off!)

PS It's wet in the photo, paint is good.

Hello datman
What exactly is 'high miles'?
Any receipts/evidence as to when the cam belt was last changed?
When did the MOT expire?
Any idea why the belt snapped?
Can you spot any leaks underneath?
Cheers

Also, how easily will the bonnet and boot stickers come off?

196,000 miles. MOT ran out in July I think. I suspect there is a leak from the power steering pump, seems oily around there. Belt just looks really old so may have just worn out, the AC, PAS , and belt tensioner all seem to spin ok, can't fit my arm down to touch the alternator pulley. As far as i know the stickers would come off maybe with hair dryer.

Not looked through history but theres 2 different cam belt stickers stuck to the belt cover, hard to read the mileages tho. certainly be worth inspecting the belt if not replacing it.

Cheers, datman. I'm tempted but I need to think about whether I have the time/money to take on a cam belt change/arrange transportation.
I'm sure if you put an MOT on this it would get snapped up!
