"...will never let you down..."

That's one of those phrases you should never use in a car advert. It's just asking for trouble!

Anyone fancy an LS400 with 333k on it and a slightly questionable advert?

Car looks nice though, besides the red mats!

Are they really worth that much? Old German barges of similar era are under £1k

Funnily enough I was just watching Wheeler Dealers and they were doing up one of these. I assume the program was made at least 10 yeears ago as they were trying to sell it for £3500. Anyway I couldn't help but think just how badly the LS400 has aged. There are some last 90s / early 2000 barges that have aged well and others like the LS just look horrible.

I don't care how many service stamps it has, with 330k it can't be worth more than £1000 can it? I think the seller is a bit deluded really, I mean he is trying to rent it out as a wedding car as well.... who wants to get married in a 90s lexus? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WEDDING-CAR-FOR-YOUR-WED...

Nice find. Strange they chose the manual gearbox to do that sort of distance as the Auto seems more popular.

To do 66k in two years you have to pretty much go to motorway, find sixth, sit in sixth for a couple of hours and generally drive around the worst of the traffic anyway.

The price seems about right considering the mileage or you could buy a damaged 2009 Cayman and spend more money having it repaired http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PORSCHE-CAYMAN-3-4-S-S-A...

Too much money for 200k miles IMHO - that damaged one is cat D so prob not worth the effort.

Definitely not worth the effort, but all Porsches, even crashed ones are strong money at the minute.
