It was no easy decision to sell. I have always known that in general these cars last forever. Until they go wrong. I am speaking from experience in the past. They can turn into money pits. In 30,000 miles no problems.

Hi thank you for everyone’s advise. It started to overheat. Which could throw up a catalog of problems. So I sold it. I have not got the time to deal with this. So I will get the LS600. Thanks again for being so helpful

LS460. Please could anyone shed any light on my problem. The heating set on full heat starts hot then goes cold. Turn it off and on again it goes hot, then warm them cold. And so on. Could this big bucks to put right. Any advice please help and thank you Tom

There is a lot to be said for the 400. I had two. No problem with either. The 460 has had some unfair bad press on problems with suspension etc. I feel the 430 was the Guinea pig with these problems. The later ones were ok. The hybrid after 10 plus years could produce some expensive problems as they get older. Everyone has their own choice and opinion on what is best. For me. I love the 460. In nearly 12000 miles of 6 months ownership. She owes me nothing. Two rear tyres. Service. Brakes. Like Jonathan said. I have no idea what will happen next.

There is some very interesting reading in this thread. A lot learned here. I had the chance of the 600. But not in a million years do I regret going for the 460.

I also have owned two LS400s. I had no problems with either. Also an IS250. Lots of fun with this one. But not an LS. I agree with all of the above. I was looking at the 600. But I opted for the LS460. In 3 months I have had no problems in 8000 miles. Like Johnathan. I have no idea what to get next.

01270 767730 His business is called Miles autos.

He is an independent dealer who loves the LS. And knows all there is to know about them. Johnathan on here introduced me to him. People come from far and wide to see him. He is very reasonable with prices as well.

Time for an update. I got mine about 3 weeks ago. Two new rear tires, new battery, a horrible rattling sound sorted by Miles at SandBach. After a lot of investigation. Turned out to be front brake calliper. Pins missing. Both sides. Safe but very irritating rattle. A full service. A full check over everything. And good as new. I loved my previous 2 , 400s. But this one is out of this world. Highly recommended. Tom

Just got my LS460. I will try and post some pictures. Absolutely beautiful.

I at present own a IS250. I have owned 2 LS400’s I am coming back into the fold with a LS460 later this week. I thought about the LS600, but swung the other way. I travel to Cornwall a lot. The IS copes with this very well. But as someone on here once said, the LS is in a different league.

Hi Jonathan, Long time no see. I am looking around for a LS460, 600 as well. Quite happy with IS250 at the moment. I have noticed the LS400 has shot up in value. I must change my profile pic as well. Hope to catch up soon. Tom

I have just bought a Is250. And just sold a LS400. I have always wanted one of these. It might not have the same power as the 400, ( I can live with that), or be as smooth, but this one goes round corners a lot better, is a lot more fun. Maybe a small 460. The toys etc are out of this world. Different league LS, but so much fun. Just wondered if anyone else has done this before. Tom.

Further update. After a few hiccups, my old LS has ended up going to someone on here. So has gone to a good home.

Sold my LS. Still in the Lexus family. Bought a Is250. Am I mad. Always wanted one. Looking to the 460 after that. Bit out of my reach at the moment.
