LC 500 wanted

[Neilgh]

Hi is anyone out there looking to sell their Lexus LC 500 V8. I am a private buyer looking for a nice example.

Hi Neil,

As a matter of interest,have you been to look at any of the cars currently at main dealers ?

I know there are a lot less available than about a year ago,but there ia a fair spread of cars from the first ones in 2017 to current demos.

Yes just missed one in Yellow 67 plate. Like Porsche members cars are generally well looked after. There are some from non franchise dealers but prefer to buy through Lexus. The yellow one was in Newcastle and I’m in the Midlands nothing at any local dealers

Have they sold the yellow one already.It only showed on the Lexus Used site last week.

The red one at Auto 100 looks nice in their pics but its obviously not main dealer.

I had to travel to get mine but thats ok for a specialist car.

A lot of the dealers are in groups so they can transfer to nearer you if they have one elsewhere.

Hello Neil

I can understand why you would wish to buy through a Lexus dealer, but in reality there should be no difference than buying from a non franchised outlet. Given all Lexus cars now receive the benefit of a 12-month extended warranty every time it is serviced by an official Lexus dealer, you should be as confident as needs be. Odds are whatever and wherever you buy your LC it will be low miles and inherently a much safer bet than many other premium cars you could have chosen.

I’ll bide my time until the right one comes along. The warranty and servicing costs are a big plus over say a Porsche. The fact the LC is so rare is a big sell for me plus the fact I love the design. Keep looking!!
