Description:


PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE LISTING. BIDDERS WILL BE CONTACTED TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE BELOW
* ** ***This is a relisting due to an
electrical issue
that occurred while the vehicle was for sale on eBay a couple months ago. We pulled the listing after the truck would not start in the driveway, and sent it to the shop to be fixed. Once there, it started fine over and over without hesitation or indication of any problem. After a couple days of diagnosis the mechanic replaced a relay and sent it home.
The truck then started fine for over month and then did it again! After many more days diagnosing the entire fuse box was replaced using all Lexus parts. The issue is better now but it has happened a few times where it cranks for 5-8 seconds before starting. 99% of the time it starts without issue, but
we are selling it as having an Intermittent No Start issue
with price adjusted accordingly. The mechanic went over the truck with a fine tooth comb and could not find any problem. He believes it to be bad relay or ground that only happens by chance. He started it over 1000 times without issue before sending it home.
We do not know what is causing the problem and are not interested in pursuing it any further. Here is your chance to buy a great vehicle for half price! Any and all are welcome and encouraged to view and drive the vehicle before bidding. Please contact me to set up an appointment.* ** ** ** ** ** *
Original Listing as follows:
Up for sale is our 1999 Lexus LX470. We have had it for over three years and it has been a very good dependable truck. It is very solid and comfortable, and incredibly smooth on the highway and around town. It has always been garaged and it shows, the paint is excellent for its age and the interior is in equally good shape. Tires are good, A/C blows cold, and all electronics work as they should. It has dual heated seats, sunroof, and power everything. A new stereo has been installed with USB, Bluetooth etc.
It has been fanatically serviced at Vautrin Automotive in Westport. The oil is changed every 3, 000 miles with full synthetic, Radiator, transmission, brake and differential fluids have all been flushed and changed. Maintenance records can be arranged for the winning bidder.
The third row seats will come with the car. We took them out and put them in dry storage. If you would like some pictures please let me know. The seats are in very good shape, we just never had the need for them. The truck also has a factory installed towing package and hitch.
It runs great, shifts great, and the 4X4 works perfectly. There are no leaks or outstanding issues other than a few cosmetic wear and tear items which can be seen in the pictures. We had the self leveling suspension converted to normal springs and shocks which are used in the Toyota Land Cruiser after one of the pumps stopped working. This is a common conversion as the original hydraulic parts typically fail around 100K. All new parts and hardware were used, and there is no real difference in the ride quality. The real benefit is that the suspension is much cheaper and less complicated to service. The ride height display on the dash currently indicates off, though we are working to have that resolved.
I am selling the Lexus for my uncle who does not use it much. He travels during the week so it has only been used weekends for the past year or so.
If you have any questions or would like more pictures please do not hesitate to ask. The Lexus is available for show and test drive in Westport CT. Please message to make an appointment. Clean title in hand. Local Pick-Up only, I am not interested in shipping the car.
This is a no-reserve auction. Please do not ask for a “buy it now” price. I always list items low and no reserve, as auctions should be. Bid early and bid often, Good Luck!
If you are the winning bidder, a $500 deposit is required within 48 hours of auction close. Full payment must be received within 7 days of auction close or pick up of vehicle, whichever is first. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time as the vehicle is listed locally.
