1991 Aussie Lexus LS400 (early series 2)

- 306,000km

- 190kw 1uze-fe

- Auto

- Has full service history from new until 2007, since then I have changed oil/filters regularly

- Electric seats with memory, electric windows, mirrors

- Full climate control with aircon working well

- Cruise control

- Economy is pretty good for an 8cyl. I average around 11L/100km.

Recently replaced:

* Front rotors with slotted DBA

* New front pads

* New shocks all round

All gizmos, etc still work fine, auto still shifts very smoothly. Has been my daily driver for near 2 years now and never skipped a beat. Very reliable, and is a great car to drive - feels much newer than it is.

The bad: The stereo decided to pack it in the other week, seems to be the factory amp. Also climate control display fogged up which is a standard LS400 thing -- you can get replacement screen on ebay for $160

Body is completely rust free, and still paint very good for age. Seems to have been kept undercover most of its life. Has done a few km, but the 1uzfe has been known to do 500,000km. Engine seems pretty healthy and should give many more kilometers, halfcut engines are cheap anyhow if you did ever need to slot another engine in... or you could always do a 1jz or 2jz for kicks.

Will sell with rego+safety cert. Have yet to obtain safety certificate (needs 4x new tyres), but will do so upon sale..

$5500 - Goldcoast (NO SWAPS)

Price drop to $5200 (will be listed for more when it goes on carsales soon).

Just had fitted 4x new Goodyear tyres, and paid another 6 months rego. So total $800 of extras.. for cheaper.

I've also managed to get the stereo working again.

Gday,

Would you be interested in selling anything seperate / exchange.

Your front seats appear to have slightly better leather then mine, would you be interested in swapping seats plus cash your way?

Also interested in the front bumper extension (black plastic lip) if your willing to sell please let me know.

    • I mean I agree. I've seemingly never had issues and I have RS4's in the rain, but I drive pretty slow in the rain, and I commute around on the street and pretty much never push it. But it's not like you're going to uncontrollably slide off the street with them in the rain. At least here in Aus. And I say this before I drive to Tassie in Winter. AS above, the term "Semi" is a bit of a misnomer. The ContiSportContact7 is also a "Semi" or a "UHP" tyre. It's the same category as an AD09 in any case.
    • These are not semis. None of the tyres in that comparo are semis. They are UHP tyres. Perfectly streetable. I'm on my second set of AD09, after using a couple of sets of AD08R. On the street. Every day. I get 15-20 thousand km out of them, which is perfectly acceptable. They are a really nice tyre to drive on. I have few, if any, complaints.
    • You'd hope, if it came from ACS, that it wouldn't be that.
    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
