  1. No…triangular on his rc300h…. Only square on Fs
  2. It would have to be soon as the RCF & NX F😏 are heading North next month to reside N.E 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿…. 👍🏻
  3. It was my missus’s , sold it at beginning of year…. I used it for awhile when i was waiting for a new set of alloys and i was surprised at how nice it drove (still wore sunglasses and a hoody in case anyone recognised me tho 😆
  4. Not at moment i dont as been sat in lexus Croydon for a week and a half now and will be there for another 2 weeks awaiting a new body ECU as i blew mine up by tinkering with something i know diddly squatt about crossed a wire and blew the body control module which stopped my door light working and window stopped dropping that 1cm when opening door basically the car no longer recognised the drivers door was opened…everything else worked fine tho but niggled me that car wasn’t 100% so biting the bullet at my £850 +vat for part and what ever the labour costs are…. and indeed i have 3 sets of alloys for my car 1xOEM set 19’’ 2 aftermarket sets 20’’’ concaved
  5. less than 2k a month at moment as retired the other month so not needing to travel up to work any more and indeed I am visiting Dorset and upsetting the locals with my loud Armytrix as i thrash it around the country roads 😂
  6. But you dont…you’ve SORNed it 🤣 ….tum te tum just saying 😏… your just not a Thoroughbred F err 😂😂
  7. Only if you drive like i do at 2k a month rather than your 2k a year 😏…. Ps 🖕🏻 😆
  8. @Locheelad Ive a 65MY RCF with higher than average mileage as i use it all the time, and luckily for me even during lockdowns i was doing over 2k a month travelling up and down the country to and from work… was the best drives I’ve ever had…motorways nearly all to myself 600+ Miles one way drives up and same again on return home 3-4times a month and my seat leather is still in great condition, but with mine being red im to believe its the hide of a red highland haggis similar hide to a dragon 😏,so much tougher than your black and white cow stuff😂😂😂 no but honestly my seats are in great condition and I’ve took my car up to 84k now, with no wear and tear visible possibly yours had been covered over with dye and that has now been worn off hence 6mths later its so visible to you now from when you purchased it I also put it down to im a slim and only 10.7st and sit dead centre of seats so no rubbing the bolsters not saying your a fat heavy bugger and slide into your seats 😂
  9. I daily mine…dont see the point of having one of these cars just to potter about in on weekends….. Ive done 42k in mine in 2 1/2yrs, …. It’s not my only car but dont see the sense on not using it to save putting mileage on it to get that little bit extra when selling it… akin to having a virgin girlfriend and never having s*x with her so next bloke gets the best out of her 😂
  10. Ive done nearly 13k in mine since my last mot 7mths ago… smiles per mile and im positively grinning 👍🏻
  11. Personally I preferred the grom v2….
  12. Ive had the vaistech and grom v2 fitted in my previous LS600hl and in SC new Panasonic double din head unit with beatsonic interface …this was perfect in the SC, not only modernised a old looking system but had the whole kit n coboddle for update sat nav apple play blah blah blah complete with Wi-Fi…ok so it cost over a grand but was well worth it
  13. Having read the manual today re something else i came across the long beep sound in one of the pages, and basically its down to either key left in car or door not being closed fully, other than that I’ve never heard the long beeping noise, i have been guilty of having both keys with me and forgot i had it in my jacket on back seat and could fathom why I couldn’t lock car as i had other key in my hand…w-mins later it dawned on me…plonker that i am….lol
  14. I drive same route regularly 600miles… 95% of route is motorways and dual so max national speed limits.. with a few extra plus’s on that 😂 and 1st refuel is 340miles away which generally has left me with 11mls in tank regardless what unleaded fuel i use… I’ve always used the cheap supermarket fuel, and when i say cheap i mean the price not quality… hasn’t effected any of my cars using supermarket 95….. E10 hasn’t effected my Performance or mpg either, i drive in sports s mode all the time,I’ve never used girlie ECO or boring Normal, my driving style is akin to if I’ve just stolen it 😂 average mpg on a spiritive 600ml drive in sports s and valves open on exhaust system is in the low 30s best Ive ever had on exact same trip was 35.6 but a hour slower on arrival time to my normal times these cars are more suited to 70mph plus for best mpg figures driving around town its a serious gas guzzler, on motorway for a 5ltr V8 these are amazing
  15. Dust on yellow stuff are horrendous… I’ve got them fitted and regretted it… but will get some use out of them before ditching them the yellow stuff are more for track and have a high dust rating …. Great bite tho…
  16. Ive been using E10 for ages …in fact done over 6000mls on it and haven’t noticed any performance or mpg issues, I regularly do a 600+ miles trip up and down from Surrey to NE Scotland every 2weeks, same route and same driving style ie zoooooom 😂 and nothing noticeable to report …so all this crap about not using E10 is just that….crap maybe im just lucky…. But i will continue to use E10 and get more litres per £
  17. I had one of those little fkrs on a newish tyre only had a max of 1000miles on it, It was unrepairable as to near the tyre wall, i dont repair tyres regardless of age mileage on this car, as i do long enthusiastically drives 😂 hadn’t lost any air just noticed it whilst cleaning car I was 620miles from home and it was a friday afternoon prior to my drive home on the Saturday contacted all tyre places locally but non had my tyre size till the following Tuesday, (aftermarket bigger alloys hence awkward non stocked tyres ) so let the tyre down and filled it with tyre weld and drove home with numerous stops to check visually along with constantly looking at tpms screen, luckily didnt loose any pressure on journey home and 3days later a tyre I’d ordered from Germany online arrived at house and fitted next day 👍🏻
  18. To much pornhub makes you miss and misread things…….. so I’m told 😏🤣
  19. He’s already mentioned hes tried the glove button in his post
  20. That’s who i ordered these from, not LPD fault as they are basically middleman and at no point had these in there possession, they ordered them to be delivered to my address obviously they are concerned as other ppl have ordered these from them as well, i know of one of the guys who’s got one of these on order, so be interesting to see how his one turns out like
  21. To all prospective purchasers on this item, please be aware they need a bit of adjustment to fit perfect, and if you do buy these give them a good look at as mine had flaws and damage, still awaiting to hear back about this from company who ordered these for me via artisan in japan…. As they not happy either re the adjustment to product it will be tricky as need to shave a bit off and could all go tits up if carbon weave gets affected…. Certainly not worth £720 looks wise yeah brilliant…. if it where to fit right was going to order more parts but this has made my mind up not too unless they come back and resolve my issues PDQ dont fit flush and 7 different flaws …between scratches on clear coat and flaws under clear coating, so cant blame the packaging or shipping delivery ppl…. Faults lay solely on manufacturers doorstep
  22. Will be posting my review on the artisan spirit item i bought recently later this week…. 👎🏻
  23. I do loads of mileage and on long runs ie motorways dual carriageways i get a average between 30-35 mpg in and around town 17-19mpg on half decent runs out of town mix of dual and single roads 24-26….. i will say this to everyone …if your concerned on mpg/fuel cost..dont be looking at any F or V8, these are cars that will drink fuel like a alcoholic if pottering around town/city streets, past 2 1/2 of my RCF ownership I’ve done over 40k with this car, worse mpg I’ve ever had pottering around locally was 16mpg best mpg was 35.6 on a 614ml journey mainly motorway/dual 340miles on average per tank on long journeys
  24. As mentioned prior , once you own one be prepared to spent lots of time explaining to ppl what it is… nearly 3 yrs into ownership and I’m still explaining to ppl what it is 👍🏻 ohh and wash and polish it more times than I bath or shower🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I came from a LS600HL to a RCF and still to this day look back numerous times after I leave car… best motor I’ve ever owned rear seatings not too great for passengers on long journeys but I hate passengers so don’t take any 😂 thes buses n taxis for them these are my only rear seat passengers 🤣🤣🤣
