  1. This is the stuff I use... I got it from a firm down south when I purchased a bottle of AIRGLIDE Polish which is brilliant by the way only polished car once and haven't had to do since and meant to last for up to 5yrs.... They use it on formula 1 race cars speed boats and aeroplanes just recently started selling to general public... Interior cleaning stuff is fab as well.... It's a 3 part process ..cleans preps and conditions Ps 1 little bottle of this polish which just managed to do my big car was £99 😫
  2. Something like that Rudy lol Mark as you know I'm already getting a replacement seat base at £1350+vat so certainly won't be doing that can you imagine the cost for full interior jeeeeeezus I use a liquid cleaner on a soft cloth a gentle massage it into my mrs.... Ooops sorry went off track there lol no but seriously I don't spray seats I spray a cloth and gently clean seats, I do condition seats as well with a liquidy cream on cloth and use on the whole leather first then and only then over perforated leather just in case of excess on cloth..... I've banned kids from eating in car as nothing worse than chocolate in the perforated leather... In fact I've banned them from doing anything in car except sitting still and occasionally breathing
  3. Power hose and fairy liquid ..... 😆😆😆😆😆 lol Ok not helpful 😈😈😈
  4. Yep I bought after market top ball joint wish bones for a LS400 from a company around Leeds and all looked good intially 3mths later rubber started to split and rot..... Bought another aftermarket set from another company down south and again 3mths later cracked n split decided to go for OEM parts after this,
  5. It's the light wood trim in his ..... I'll ask again what he's doing with it when I see him
  6. It has...... I'll make enquires next time I'm up to see him Ps don't hold your breath tho he's a miserable sod when it comes to giving stuff away lol
  7. Booooooo traitor lol 😉 least it's still a Lexus but a inferior model to the LS 😂😂😂😂 lol
  8. He bought it brand new and has certainly got his money's worth out of it.... Interior wise you'd think it was near brand new.... His ls430 was the 1st lexus I had ever been in and is what made me buy my 1st Lexus LS and I've never looked back ever since.... Think he only got the new LS460 because I'd said I was looking at 600s lol he's still jealous tho.... But he did give me my own parking space in company's yard as he knows how protective I am of my car as he is.... Pays to suck up to boss lol
  9. I'd always said to him if he was to sell it I'd buy it off him.... He approached me 2-3yrs ago about buying it and I said thanks but no thanks due to rust coming thru both front doors along the trim, plus it had the milk stain in passenger nsf window..... With it being sat for so long all brake pipes need renewing and leveling sensors are KAPUTT now as well.... It's just going to rack n ruin Lol I did offer him £200 scrap money for it ...I shan't repeat what he said to me lol
  10. My boss has one of these mk1 LS430 a 2001 Y reg same color but doesn't use it now and parked up in corner of his haulage yard rotting away 😣 On that note he's now got a 14plate LS460 near same color 😄 but still a shame that his orginal LSs is hidden in corner Can't see the 430 but it's behind my 600 and far end of yard on right handside
  11. Brian..... Lol re the weather...where I live ive not had enough snow to build a snowball let alone a snowman in the last 3-4yrs.... Which to most would be a blessing but not me...I've 2 young kids in house and 2 brand new sledges well saying brand new there 3yrs old but never been used oh and I bought a set of 18" winter tyres and never been fitted sold them to a mate as they wer intially bought for my GS450h so no use for my 600 and went out and bought 19" winter tyres but just taking up room in garage now John... The eclipse is this Friday about 08:45am
  12. Mines in getting the recall on the "engine fuel pressure sensor" as I write this I recieved a letter last year saying my LS600hl was on the recall list and was just going to leave it till its service in May 15, I had to put my car in lexus for another reason last week and said its also needing recall work carried out, funny thing is following day recieved my 2nd letter of vosa re the recall info on my car, phoned lexus up and they said just as well I'd recieved the second letter as they couldn't of proceeded without it...... Think 1st letter is a heads up that cars in for a recall and 2nd is confirmation, as it says and I quote from my letter " we have now made all of the necessary arrangements with our network and they are ready to carry out the work to have your car modified" Ps EDIT.... Sim22 my letters identical down to date and Our Ref AGGB7 lol apart from my names different 😂😂😂😂😂
  13. I've got it as well.... The was a post on this subject years ago if I mind rightly... Think it's to do with warning off admin if you break the rules.... Like you I have no warnings so I'm not that bad .... (I must of slipped under the radar lol) Ps only visible to yourself and not to everyone... As I can't see it on yours
  14. So am I.....unlucky for you as I'd made you beneficiary of my car if I'd snuffed it.... Ps altered last will and testament now n your written out of it now lol .... Yep my sense of humours back as well lol
  15. As some of you are aware I was drastically ill earlier last year and didn't use my car ( oh I'm 80% better now) had been advised to buy a trickle charge/solar charger for car as it was being parked up for a while but I didnt ..so lesson learned here as I'm putting this down to lack of use of car and especially with it being such a big car with all gadgets draining away at battery..... Next gadjets on shopping list is a solar charger
  16. Id say defo get a warranty.... Its not a CT I've got but a LS600hl and have just claimed on the warranty for a heated seat in my car.... Replacement part is costing £1350+vat so certainly getting my money's worth of the extended warranty I bought my car for £32k with 24000 on clock 1 owner (lexus UK) everything looked new on car when I bought it (it was 4yrs old at the time) not misused at all and expensive parts can fail.... I'd certainly consider a extended warranty if I was you... Just my view on the matter
  17. Just got my courtesy phone call off Lexus Edinburgh Re my warning messages on dash ..... All down to a knackered 12v battery not holding a charge and low voltage, so new battery ordered at a mere £291+penny's fitted (seemingly a specialist battery with no cheaper alternative) this bill will be picked up by myself as not under warranty Heated seat problem is down to heat Element being KAPUTT so replacement seat base+ leather ordered at a costly £1350+vat covered by my warranty Windscreen washer jets not adjusting so new ones fitted under warranty 😃 (didn't even realise the was a problem with them) Lexus Recall work on fuel servo line being done as soon as parts are in So all going well I shall be sat back in my car (with a warm bum may I add) by the end of week As car was recovered by lexus assist it will be transported back up to me 200mls at no cost I'm a happy chappie 😃😃😃😃😃
  18. Royoftherovers aka John handbrake is automatic soon as I place it in park...I do have the option to manually do it but don't , just left switch for auto handbrake on..... Was hoping to hear from them again before close of play how their getting on with it but haven't.. No worries will no doubt hear tomorrow
  19. I hate the shogun... Had it 2 days now and only done 6mls in it.... 6mls of my life I'll never get back its a bone shaker and need ear defenders... Yes I've been spoilt with lexus's smooth n quiet rides Run132 I don't need any other marque of car to appreciate the LS more.... I could be a salesman for the LS I love it that much Yes if I was given a CT it would be a ornament on my drive as well (sorry CT owners) but far to plasticky inside for my likening
  20. This just been delivered as my replacement hmmmm YEP it'll do not a lexus but at least it's jap (Mitsubishi shogun 64 plate) hopefully not have it long before my cars back tho
  21. Chris.... Saw wheeler dealers program restoring one of these.. Is it not a crank start on these...
  22. Cruisermark..... Possible.. As just leading up to all warning messages my battery was slightly under powered, not enough to start car but all accessories working fine, hooked up 12v power pack car started straight away then bing bing as all warnings popped up Prior to this I had ran car the day before with no probs, parked her up then 16hrs later went to move her n as above battery not enough juice to start her took car for a wee drive along straight country roads but messages didn't clear (abs n vsc) usually pop up if a battery has been taken off and clear once driven... But not in this case Will wait n see what lexus Edinburgh say and will keep you's all updated
  23. 😳😢😢😢😢 speechless 😩😩😩😩😩😩 hopefully get her back by weekend tho I did ask if he had a cover so no-one would see a lexus on a recovery truck , unfortunatly he didn't 😞😞😞😞
