]I used to pay £340 per month for 6 months [/highlight]on a 2.2 CDX (group 13) then after 6 months paid £120 per month with elephant.co.uk. No idea what group an IS200 is in, but I would imagine similiar...so it's do-able.




'KIN ELL Josh!!!!!      £340 per month...............GULP!

that was my first mortgage premium!

Wish mine was that cheap now!  ;D

I remember my first years insurance being ~£1700 TPF&T on a battered G-reg Nissan Bluebird...

'cos there's damn all room in an IS-200.

That said, the only guy I know who drives one is 6'4". Don't know how he does it. I wouldn't fancy one at 6'0". :-/

I don't think he'll reach 6ft he's about 5'8" at the minute, probably end up about 5'10" by next year.

Find one and try it.

Also look at other owners and see how many have the seat leaning back a lot and not a better posture with a more upright back  :y

Oh, I thought that was to fit in with the latest 'cool' look, have the seat as far back and as low as possible, somehow that looks good to the gangsters around Ashford  ;D

i think you need to learn how to position the seat then!!

my brother had his IS200 for 3 years which i drove several times, he has an IS300 now, and neither of us, at 6' 4" have ever had room issues or comfort issues driving it

Quite the contary, you have to seriously compromise your driving positio and lean the seats back to fit.

There is dam all room in an IS200.....and thats a fact!  :y
