Matthew_McNally Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Welcome to the Lexus Owners Club! :D :D This is the official "Introduce yourself" thread - so why don't we all stand up and tell everyone about ourselves? I'll go first ;) My name is Matthew McNally - normally get Matt or Matty - and I am one of the admins in these here parts. I have an IS (check the sig) - you'll notice no performance enhancing mods - mainly due to the large thumbprint in the middle of my forehead ( ) We hope you'll find the forums useful and friendly!

Gavin_S Posted June 3, 2003 Share Posted June 3, 2003 Just to follow Matt's lead.... Great to finally have the opportunity to unite all us southern hemisphere Lexus owners! Gavin S here,based in Auckland NZ-I'll be the local support crew should any of you members have any queries relating to the local(nz/australian) Lexus and Altezza scene. Still in early stages,but am looking forward to organising meets,gatherings and any other occasion we can come up with to show off and talk cars! Great for a NZ club to finally have the support and resources of an established overseas panel of experts-cheers for the opportunity Matt.

greeneyes Posted June 14, 2003 Share Posted June 14, 2003 Hi Team, I'm Keith, also from Auckland. I bought Greeneyes for my wife's Christmas present in 2001. Wayne Richards from the Paeroa dealership had the green vinyl fitted, and they really makes it stand out. Wayne's keen on the Club, so if we need a dealer for anything he's there. No mods to the car, the only thing it needs is a TDI turbo, which I'll work on slowly. (and don't park your Lexii in dark corners 'cos I'd love leather seats!) I only get to drive when we go away for the weekend somewhere, and as we both have company cars the Altezza sits in the garage during the week. The only other thing of note is that, being over 50, I think I'm the oldest member of the UK LOC and the local chapter!! Too bad they didn't have IS200s when I was rallying!
