Am I Seeing Things!

[Lexmanic]

OR is it just wishfull thinking on my part. Namely do I see used prices of the LS400 begining to rise and if so is it because buyers AND sellers (at last) are realizing that these very reliable luxurious motors are becoming more and more rare?

[bigegg]

I hope not :.(

At least until I buy mine.

More likely that it's a seasonal fluctuation.

Prices always drop over the summer - people are more interested in holidays than buying cars.

No you are not seeing things. They are defo going up in value.

[cruisermark]

ive noticed there are more ls430s available than 400s especially the mark 4s

[Lexmanic]

I suppose that even organically a good 400 WILL become harder to find

[Angel123]

There will always be more LS430's coz they are newer.They will come down in value. For now.

True but many, including some 430 owners, think the LS400 is the better car. Incidentally the originator of the Lexus Brand Mr Toyoda has just died aged 100

I seem to see far more 400 than 430 though?

Not that I see many of either of course.

Maybe there were more 400s sold, anybody know?

I think another post has the numbers that approx 5000 of the LS400 sold but only 1500 on the road (or not SORN).

I rarely see 400's but there are 2 more where I live (small town of 5000 people), and I even say one the other say on same school run as me, and always used to see a really nice bronze Mk3 in the days when I commuted to Bath.

But when on the motorways it seems like I am the only 400 out cruising.

I regularly see another 3 LS400s here on Sheppey, Kent

And another 5 near Henfield . . .

There are a few around here in Cheshire. one just up the road. I think there is only about 850 left, including those that have been sorned. When I was at the last meet, 3 of us drove into the museum together. Wish I had a pic of it. Not something you see everyday.

i have just come back from a holiday in south wales,never seen one ls400,got 37 mpg at a steady 60,not bad for a V8.

[bigegg]

I've seen ONE LS400 around leeds.

No LS430s or newer

Wierdly, I haven't seen any GS300s apart from mine.
