First one. Full service history, recent major service, been kept garaged (good to help prevent corrosion), it's £650 cheaper and only a year younger. It would make a great Cardassian freighter.

I wouldn't buy either of them, but if I had to choose I would go for the second one, the first one has been " tarted up " for a sale, it says the wheels have been refurbished, but they have been done very badly if you look close.

Gloss all over the engine... I hate it.

I would offer the owner a grand, 'cos nobody apart from you will be remotely interested in either of them.;)

A proper professional wheel refurb (remove tyre, strip, powder coat, refit tyre and balance weights on inside) would only cost about £300.

the full lexus history counts for alot , should kinda prove its milage is genuine...if the rest of the car is right the wheels dont matter too much

the other ad doesnt say so much , make a call and see what history it has

they can do stupid milages and look nice still , so be carefull of missing history

Go and give them both the once over, see what sort of feeling you get when your there. It's hard to give any advice from the adverts as both have their plus points.

Lee,

The second one has alot less mileage and is newer - so would seem to be the best to go for... but do they have any history??

The first one - well, the phone number (01702) means it is not too far from me. Very local - I don't recognise the reg - and sadly I do tend to remember them . so don't think we have had it in our place, which is a shame! The local Lexus used to be good - so it should have been serviced well.

I would lean towards the first if, only if, they can prove work has been done etc. - including a second cam belt job etc. (it would be due on years) and if they have some good service history.

Great cars but maintenance can be at a great cost too... open a savings account for it as well.

Notice how neither photographs the driver's seat bolster nearest the door.

And........... your point is? Be nice if you stated that as it would help the OP. Or do you want to keep everyone guessing?
