It's some weird Lexus LS400 botch up originally from 1991 which has had some 'work' done to it, been SORN'd since October 2020 (thank goodness)

When the picture was taken and when I last saw it it looked like it was pretty much at the end of the 'road' :rolleyes:

Absolute disgrace to what was and still is a superior luxury car, the Lexus LS400.

Whilst it makes it no better, the only way such external marmite mods can be done is if its had a Toyota Supra TT engine swap and then had some more done to it to make mental power and torque figures.

Well as a start, a tin of black paint and a brush, and cover that hideous orange on the wheels, nd after your eyesight has recovered a bit, you could have a look at what else needs to be done

Albeit a pretty boring car, characterless to say the least :rolleyes:
