Hi, looking for a family SUV and after doing some research I quite like the idea of a petrol hybrid instead of the usual diesel.. I also drove my friend's yaris hybrid and was quite impressed how seamless and relaxing it is. Truth is we dont do many miles or long trips often so I am worried that a diesel will be wasted.. So, started looking at Rav4s and Lexus NX. I like the latest rav more visually (2019 on..). So after a lot of research and getting carried away with the "necessary" equipment mileage etc I ended up deciding I will have to spend around the 16-17k mark.. Didnt want to spend that much when I started the search but you know how it goes.. Now after all this research I realise I could buy a Macan for this sort of money.. although a bit older. So I am in two minds regarding what to go for.. Looking for some advise. Anyone with toyota or lexus hybrids? Having said all this, no SUV really rocks my boat. So I'm thinking maybe I should go for an older Rav and save some money.. Just conscious that the infotainment is so bad.. Later one at least has carplay/android auto.

Hi, Looking for some dash rings for the cluster area only. Saw them on ebay but they come from Poland. Can I buy in UK or do you have a set you are not going to use? Thanks!

She's a beauty!

What an absolute bargain. Sorry to hear about seller's hardship. Hope the car isn't flipped for profit.

Hello mate, I have an old link I can sell. Not sure on the model number. I will have to check. Edit: this is the one. Bought it back then and never used.

Hi! I have a set. Discs had minimal mileage and oem toyota. One of the calipers was sticking slightly, so it will benefit from a refurb but should still work and pass mot etc.. Comes with CW fast road pads. Collection from Warwick.

Thanks! Its crazy to think that was 9 years ago! Never kept a car this long! I do remember reading your thread when you first got the car and keeping all your parts in the living room! You have done really well with it and im very jealous. I hope one day I will be able to do the same!

Bump

Off the car now. Looks quite crispy.. Should be much better after a session with a wire brush. Will take offers.

People also make custom billet ones. A bit pricey but I love mine and it's unique.

More photos.

Thanks! Here is one with everything put together. Unfortunately during very bad weather. The steering wheel is new also. The horn is only temporary.

Hey, I'm sure I made a thread about wrapping the dash panels in fabric, but for the life of me I can't find it. Here is a pic of what I've been working on. Will take better pictures soon. I guess it's a hate it or love it kind of thing. I love it, but needs some fine tuning to be perfect. PS. Can you believe its 5 years since 2018?

I have a used japspeed catback exhaust that I will let go for cheap if anyone wants it. No damage, works fine. Pictures to follow. £100? Edit: located in Warwick.

Any pics on the car? Thanks.
