Is a 2003 Lexus IS 200 good value at £2000?
Is a Lexus IS 200 a good buy at £1999? It is a 2003 model with 93,000 miles and 4 former owners. Very minor bodywork dent on rear bumper but otherwise it looks intact.

Very smooth straight six, but is timing belt and that may need replacing. And it's 14 years old, so use a magnet to search for rust and filler under any repainted bits. Big wheels with low profile tyres may have led to suspension damage.
