  9. 2 weeks into my new lexus, and still loving it...as McDonalds would say...But I have a proble...has anyone else heard of this... Locked up the car and tucked her (Lexus) in for bed.....came down in the morning and found the two front windows had opened by an inch both sides...thought Sh*t and did not close the windows, and kick myself.. 3 days later.....came down and all four windows has automatically opened...this time by the same amount, and of course it had rained too, so wet leather...weird I thought. Must be me, must have pressed something.... I made a point of making sure the window lock had been depressed for a few days, no problem... This weekend..forgot to press the window lock button......same thing happened again, all four windows have opened again...and yes rained again.. Is it me,,,am i doing something, or has my baby got a fault... Reported to my friendly Lexus Dealer, awaiting for them to get back to me.......any one else with a similar issue...or do I have a ghost.... Bigplanet....

  11. hi ordered mine on 20th Jan delivered 1st Feb!...very quick but had to change the colour to Codexton as the silver was teking 3 months to delivered...thou well happy with the colour Bigplanet
  12. Hi, I have had my Lexus now for 1 week, in Cadoxton Slate, perfect colour looks a dream. Thou as some posts have said, does show up the road muck, specially at the moment, with the raods being salted, but well worth it if you are a cleaning on a regular basis....any way what is the best colour not to show up road dirt..??? My opinion go for it you will not be dissappointed.... Bigplanet
  13. B)--> QUOTE(Carlos B @ Feb 4 2006, 10:41 PM) ← Nice one Bigplanet. I'm a new Lexus owner too, love the auto. The one thing I don't like....and its not a big thing, is the airbag indicator and the clock on the bottom level of the dash. Clock reminds me of my old MR2 clock. Would have been nice to integrate that into the dash better. Like I said...minor gripe, but the rest of the car is magic. What colour did you go for ? Agree with the airbag sign why there of all places,and clock should have been better designed. The auto is mad, try it in sports with flappy pads.....wooooow...mad... went for the cadaoxton slate, not my first choice, but better delivery time...love it thou, cream leather....nice.... andy cheers email is bigplanet67@hotmail.com My partners phone is a motorola might try that...or ask my friendly Lexus dealer to do it....
  14. hay Bigplanet or a big plant.....I am having fun......shame lexie can not come to bed with me... :P
  15. My IS250 SE was delivered on Wednesday this week on time and as per order. I was like a kid on christmas eve the night before, my partner nearly left me if I mentioned the new car once more time. The car was delivered by the Swindon dealership, nice guy, with a clip board. we sat in the car and started the script, I just wanted to tell him to go, and leave me to play with it, he suggested me reading the manual....ya right, I am a man, do not do manuals...He seemed to struggle on some elements of the MM, think I couldhave done better on that bit...any way, the hand over was a 9/10. he suggested us high octane petrol too, so thats what I am doing using Shell Opitmax...I asked about limiting the revs and speed, he turned to me and said go and "fill my boots"!....no need have fun, was his responce, so I have Had a meeting in the afternoon, so plugged in the location and off I went.WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, what a car, the engine is so quiet, drive prefect and comfortable. On the M1, had so many people look over and scare at the car, or am I imagining it.... Wednesday night, I gave in and got the manual out, as soooooooo many buttons and features to learn.. Now Saturday and had the car 3 days, and done 700 miles, trip to london, yuck M1 and Friday return home....still l learning the buttons, so many surprise,,,ohhh thats what that does...! Loves 99.9% of the car......where can I start, it looks great, drives very well, you put your foot down and you have a G Force on your face like the space shuttle. The toys are so great, from the well tooled sat nav to the reserve cam, thou still getting used to the voice activation, might be my accent!. Any one else found that....gave up and pressed disc... Things I am struggling with MM is a bit nanny, some features and disabled when driving...okay understand about watching a DVD, but dialling a number.. MP3 disks, has anyone had anu problems with CD's with MP3 music. freezes and refuses to respond, can not eject, and the whole MM freezes for a while. Bluetooth with Nokia 6330i - how can you scny the whole contact list, only can seem to do one by one...yuck... Hates None...what so ever, normally i can find one thing to hate..... Every time I get in the car I find something else I love...think I am having an affair with my car... Bigplant
  16. I have an IS250 SE-L MM in Cadoxton with black leather and love it..as you say it's personal choice, but surprisingly enough the wife agreed with me Would like to post some (decent) pics, but currently the other side of the pond....could do in a week or so though. Just been browsing the spares catalogue in Westside Lexus, Houston...they body kits, skirts and side panels in all colours but a bit big to fit in the suitcase. I have ordered it now in Cadoxton Slate, I have warmed to it and think it looks cool too....being delivered Wed 1 Feb .......countdown begins
  17. Hi all, originally wanted Argento Ice in my IS250 SE MM Auto, but Lexus are telling me anything from 12 weeks. They have offered me same spec in Cadoxton Slate, with a delivery of next week...sounds attractive....has anyone got Cadoxton Slate....I know colour is a personal choice, but any opinions.... Bigplanet...yes i know suppose to say Colour not Cool :winky:
  18. Hi, I ordered my new IS250 SE MM Auto this week, Silver etc. Very surprised when i was told it be with me no later than 14th Feb as one 100% match was on the cargo ship. so approx 4 weeks., very quick delivery. Bigplanet
  19. The price I quoted was fully maintenanced aas well so a little comfort there. Agree may be better for me to come out of company scheme. But was not ready to have a big loan agreement on my credit record.... Thanksfor the welcome too....20 days to go...and counting. heard yesterday it was on a cargo ship, on it was to port. Bigplanet
  20. Hi, Just placed my order for new Lexus 250 SE, Auto with MM via our lease company. Think it ended up being Aviva. After loads of haggles we have got it down to £730 ish minus recoverable TAX. Thats on a 3 year deal with 35000 miles per year. You can get it cheaper on a 30k mileage. As for TAX, well not good but hay well worth it...CO2 emissions not good.... Delivery - placed order Monday, the car will be delivered no later than Feb 14th....very good, a basic Ford takes 6 weeks. DO not go for the Caspian Sky- looks silver its white.... Can not wait.....3 weeks to go to get my new baby :D !! Bigplanet
