Good afternoon everyone I've just joined the club after becoming the proud owner of this 2000 Ls400

Very nice and welcome 

Could be the photo but if those headlight lenses are clouding I can recommend the Autoglym headlight restoration kit.

Yep your right mate.But luckily my mate has his own detailing business so it's booked in tomorrow morning to get the headlights done.I haven't had her a week yet and can't find any faults with it.Im loving driving it what a car 

[rich1068]

Good stuff.

Welcome to the forum with your handsome lookin' beastie, glad you're enjoying being wafted along.

Out of interest what mileage does it have?

[Dean48]

It's just done 121,000 I'm lucky it's got full service and just had the cam belt water pump and pulleys done 

[Spacewagon52]

You still have many miles of smiles ahead of you!

[Spacewagon52]

Dean, I would be interested in your car history and whether you have owned a Lexus before?

Comparing cars you have driven or owned, how do you rate the LS400, so far?

[Dean48]

It's my first lexus.Ive always had tuned and modified cars but due to an on going back problem I've just sold my seat leon cupra r mk1.So this is by far the best car I've ever owned for comfort and driveablity.its like nothing I've ever had.For the price it cost I'm shocked you don't see many more of them about to be honest.

They are a hidden gem - mainly due to their reliability. You can keep most cars on the road if you throw enough money at them but to own the likes of some high end marques when they get older, you need deep pockets. It is luxury motoring at an affordable level. We all hope on here that the secret does not come out!

[Dean48]

Yeah I agree I did a lot of research into the Ls before buying it and found that most things aren't that expensive.And there's a big second hand market for them.Ive just got a pair of bonnet struts and the magazine for the cd player for £40 delivered.Not bad in my book

What do you think of the HiFi system?

 

[Dean48]

Seems to be ok.I know upgrading can be a pain
