SCB

I'm still attending. Looks like possibly 3 or 4 of us, which is more F cars than you usually see in one place. I'm up for arriving in convoy. I'll be coming down the M3 and then....well, I need to research that a bit more, so if the M27 services is on the route I'll see you there. What time, is 10:30 Ok?

3. 2013 ISF

Hi guys, Last year we had an area reserved for ISFs (although due to the weather only 3 showed up). I am going to ask Beaulieu if we can have an area for all Lexus F cars this year, that way we can assemble a choir of glorious V8s! You will still need to buy an individual ticket in advance via the website, or at the gate on the day. I believe the tickets are slightly cheaper if you buy in advance - they were last year. Hope to meet many of your there

Sounds as if we may have a few attendees. My car's an ISF, and it seems we may get a couple of RCFs, how about the elusive GSF - anyone?

Any F car owners going to this event at Beaulieu on 28th July? I went last year on what was probably the only cold and wet day of the whole summer. I'm hoping for better this year and perhaps a good line up of F cars, anyone up for it?

Yes, it is unusual to see another F, except for the last few miles on the way to a meet up! Mine has been hibernating for the winter, but this recall gives me an excuse to fire it up, and as you say remember how much fun it is to drive. My winter experience hasn't been too bad as I have an RX to use daily, and I doubt winters in my part of the world (Berkshire) would really be called "winter" in Aberdeenshire

PhoeNicks, looking on "howmanyleft" suggests only 12 were registered in 2013, which is of course the last year of new registration for the ISF

Hi, Yes, I too received the letter today. Like yours, my car is also a 2013 ISF. Need to get it booked in now - good excuse for a quick blast in the winter sunshine!

I also used the courtesy light supply from the bottom right of the door. If I remember correctly that was the final part of the jigsaw to get the whole thing working.

I fitted a Po40 to my car about a year ago. I bought from a really helpful guy in Australia called Michael. He obtained the kits from a manufacturer in Asia, I seem to recall it was Malaysia. I had a few issues with the colours of the car's loom not matching the colours stated in the instructions that came with the kit. Once Michael had sent me instructions showing the function of each wire in the Po40 it was a simple job to match these to the wires in the loom wire in, even for me. An auto electrician would be able to do this quickly and easily if you don't fancy it. The hardest part of the whole job was getting the door panel off; you really have to pull it hard. In summary I believe the kits were always Asian, and in my experience work well and are easy to install. I'd suggest you order one and give it a try Good luck

Hi Jason, Exactly as Westie says in his post. I have a 2016 450h and had the rear doors seal issue and sunroof trim issue. Both replaced under warranty and not been an issue since. Otherwise a great car

Back to the photo at Lexus Ipswich...it was taken approx a year ago. Autumn last year I bought the ISF in the photo, and looked at the GSF and RCF alongside. It wasn't a great buying experience, but all is resolved now I'm pleased to say and, of course, the car itself is everything we lucky few know it should be...I love it!!

Hi Guys, As Lee said we met at the Simply Japanese today, boy was it cold, wet and windy, but there were some cracking cars there, not least 3 ISFs (2 in black) plus I spotted a blue lurking in a separate part of the display area. I've attached some photos of cars I saw that Lee hasn't already posted. If the weather had been a little more cooperative, or perhaps if I had dressed like it was mid December, rather than mid summer it would have been a fabulous day out. Need to have a word with the organisers to ensure they don't hold the event next year on the same day a Kemble meet: I'd like to go to both!

Mine's black as well, is black the new silver? Hopefully see you there. I've printed the token that was earlier in the thread

I'm going and looking forward to seeing other F cars there

Hi Guys, Really enjoyed the last meeting and was looking forward to seeing updates and mods this time. However, I'm already booked to go to the Simply Japanese event at Beaulieu which is the same day as the Kemble run - I wish they'd checked with us first! Have a great day, and maybe next time Simon

I fitted a PO-40 kit to my ISF and it works a treat. The mirrors fold in when I lock the car and fold back out again when I unlock the car. It's very handy to be able to answer the question "did I lock the car" with out walking back to check - something that occurs with increasing frequency as you get older (believe me!). I ordered the kit from a guy in Australia and it arrived in about a week. The details are elsewhere on the forum if you search for PO-40.

Just seen Ep1 Ser2. Loved the line from Clarkson that sums up my ISF experience..."turning petrol (pause for emphasis) into noise!" Otherwise as others have said the celebrity slot is a bit yawn inducing

Hi guys, Not wishing to rain on anyone's parade. I have just seen a write up about this place classicmotorhub.com and thought it may be suitable for a 10th annversary meet up for F cars next year. As I said I'm not trying to throw a spanner in the works if someone is already running with this, and I'm in no way associated with the venue. Just a thought. Happy to hear comments, perhaps some of you already know the place?

Good work guys

There used to be a Lexus dealer in Bracknell and their servicing was carried out by Bracknell Toyota. I'd go back and ask them again

Great day, lots of Lexuses (or should that be Lexi?), lots of fellow owners. All I have to do now is remember which car, goes with which real name, with which forum name Thanks for arranging it and i look forward to the next one

Hi Womble 72, what I was looking to do was to get the mirrors to fold in automatically when I lock the car with the remote. I know it's a bit anal, but as "senior moments" become increasingly frequent I can't remember whether or not I locked the car. If the mirrors are folded in, I know I did lock it - it saves that dance of walking away from the car, stopping, walking back to check the doors then walking away again. I'll check out the link to the other topic. Love this site guys, so much information

M40, M5, M6 for me. I'll keep an eye out for fellow ISFs

Hi guys, Sorry to interrupt the "garage queens" debate, back to my original question relating to the automatic folding mirrors. I checked on my car as suggested and it does not have the auto fold function. So, i'm in for the aftermarket solution. How easy or otherwise would this be to fit, is there anyone going on Sunday who can show me or talk me through what is required? Looking forward to meeting as many owners as possible on Sunday Cheers
