1998 Lexus LX Description

This is a 1998 LX 470 that I have had since it had 6,800 miles. I used it as a company (medical practice that leased at vehicle for each of us) vehicle for its first 4 years and thus was technically owned by the company. I was the only driver. I then purchased it at the end of the lease for my personal vehicle. (The state of Pa made a mistake on the title when I first purchased it at the end of the lease. So another title had to be generated.) I have been the only driver since I leased it in 1999 when it had 6,800 miles. Not sure how the CarCheck says it has had 5 owners! I have copies of the titles to verify my possession. I have included a picture of the service record that show I took delivery at 6827 on November 30, 1999. (poor Prince!)
The only blemish is when it was keyed in the hospital parking lot and it did go to the body shop for that so I would guess that would show up on the Carfax. I have a receipt for that repair to show the work done. So there was no structural damage only a paint scratch that was on the driver's front and rear doors and rear quarter panel. But to repair it correctly they took off the mirror and molding. So it was not some MAACO mask the area and spot paint! I have had the sheepskins on it since I got it so the leather is great and I am a nonsmoker, of course! Time to give the old guy a new home. Has served me well for these past 17 years. No mechanical issues that I am aware of and just put in a new battery because I was not driving it much. It was serviced as per Lexus protocol up until 180,000 miles by Bobby Rahal of Mechanicsburg, Pa. You are welcome to see the vehicle for inspection in Merion County Florida. I will meet you in the parking lot at the local sheriffs office.
So I have gotten a lot of questions about timing belt and water pump. These were replaced at 178,000 miles. The brake pads were checked at 183,966 miles and had 11/32 on the front and 12/32 on the back. The service and 178,000 miles cost $ 2353! Then service at 183,966 cost $ 743. So no corners were cut for service.
Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel the auction if it does sell here in Central Florida. KBB for this vehicle in good condition is 6500. So price is correct.
Thanks for looking. If you have negative feedback do not bid.

Again please take note. I have the service records. These date back to when I first leased it when it had 6,800 miles. Pretty impressive that I was kept all the service receipts for 18 years!
