Lexus IS200 SE
Discussion
Small update time!
The good news is that the cam belt is finally done so that's good for my peace of mind. The car is also still running faultless and averages around 25mpg around town which isn't too bad I guess.
I took the car in to get the wheels done and the very honest guy told me they are too far gone and need powder coating so doesn't want me wasting my money on a poor finish. Bit annoyed as it was going to cost me 130 but now will be around 230 and it's going to need to wait now till the end of month due to finances.
I also just randomly checked online for the MOT and realised I have been driving round with no tax on so after many attempts to speak to someone at DVLA as I couldn't tax it online I had to resort to going to the post office and pay a £25 administration fee on top of the tax. I will try and claim this back as it's been over a month and I haven't received a log book as of yet which is unacceptable.
