on my way home from filling up petrol last night i went down the a1 for quickness (5mins)... was goin rather quick when a lexus tried to race me, i didnt realise i was doin 130+ till i came to a bend and nearly shit myself ha.. all of a sudden this lexus what seemed to be a 4dr saloon belted past me like nothing ive seen.. i then realised it was the, IS F 5.0ltr v8 then i slowed down abit and without seeing anyone in my mirror a porsche turbo flew past the both of us :O looked like 997 or sumthin. but moral of the story is i didnt realise them lexus is-f's were so quick!!

 

there`s plenty of stuff out there that would surprise ya.

 

what were u in ?

 

focus st2, i was thought it was a tit in a gay family lexus further proved wrong

 

bloody hell , was it one of these ?

 

yip, with quad exhausts etc.. but at a side glance i thought - 'whos this cock' haha. was nice actually, pearlescent white

 

Looks the bollocks that does

 

The local dibble have one along side an Evo X! Not bad "company cars" for the traffic cops

 

is that the same model they featured in top gear the other week?

 

the Lexus IS F are very quick and very nice to drive but have to be for a 45grand car

 

No that was the Ł346k Lexus LF-A...

 

Good job it was'nt the 1 rob84 mentioned because if he put his blues n twos on at 130+ you would have have defo been in it ha.

 

They do go well fella.You fancy coming to the scotch corner all ford meet.

I've seen an Evo kicking about, is the Lexus marked up or not?

 

evo mag ran an isf for a bit and it clocked a genuine 173mph so a bit quicker than a focus st.

 

Like these lexus isf's

 

Yeah plenty of understated stuff out there that will show a clean set of heels to an ST.

I love little exchanges like that, a middle aged geezer giving it the big one in a family saloon, don't mind getting blown into the weeds by a 5L V8, makes a nice change from 17yr old tossers in Saxos who try their luck.

I got raped by a new shape M5 in my Pulsar once, I was buzzing as it sounded so nice and just left me for dead. We both came off a roundabout onto a dual carriageway, I was giving it the big one off the roundabout, and he just blasted past me on the 2 lane slip road

 

Yup, both are marked up. I've only seen them driving around together as well.

yea, its strangley not a bad feeling Haha... at first from a distance thought it was just a standard is or sumthin.. but wen it did get closer i soon realised!! but they are really nice cars, pics dont do them much justice as ive just been looking at them.. but this 1 looked mint! especially in that pearlescent white!!

 

Local police round this way have a brand new unmarked RS4 estate.
