Hmm...i am curious what has happened this year that has made them re-think. I will ask and post when it gets done

Hi...despite our dealer checking the car last year and saying we were not affected..they are now asking to replace the drivers airbag, via warranty of course. Apparently Lexus have had a rethink...anybody else being asked to have this done?

(Offerred replacement car so hoping i get a few miles in a current IS)

Still yet to spot, or even hear about, another Pearlescent White one like ours...looks extra fabulous in this weather :-)

Wife was parked at Asda York in the week and someone planted a perfect red lipstick kiss on the bonnet...looks fab against the pearlescent white background.

We assume the kisser loved the car :-)

Congratulations - i am pretty sure you will not regret it :-)

We bought ours a few months ago from Lexus dealer and it had 17k on it but 10 years old. The dealer changed the belt as part of the sale prep - without asking

I always thought time had an effect as well as use

So this will be our first winter in the SC ....what should we expect when the wether gets cold and snows?

My IS250 was poor - i am guessing this will be same-?

Hi Mick - looks great - feels good to get a cracker huh? Enjoy

Hi Shaun - great decision - we are loving ours and i am sure you will too

The boot should stay up by itself so the struts must be shot. If you search around i am pretty sure you can buy some aftermarket relacements and fit them yourself in no time.

Makes you wonder if it was genuine - or am i just a cynical old so and so :-)

Tried Mamas and Papas today and the general answer is a definate no.

Looking good :-)

Nope :-(

Thanks all - she is off to Mothercare/ToysRus today to see what they can do - will keep you posted :-)

As the title says really. We want to put a child seat in rear for our grandson but the Halfords folks tried several and none fit.

Has anybody done this and which model of seat please - thx in advance

Very nice indeed. I did not realise that the this was the no-plate look. As you say, a nice centre cap and they will look the dogs - though they look pretty good as is.

I wonder what the logic was in putting such a large disc on in the design stage

I take it all back re we buy any car.

Our SC replaced an SLK and we had struggled to get interest on eBay. I checked wbac on recommendation of a friend and was staggered at the good price offered. I took it down within the hour and they revised it down only 100 quids for some stone chips and door scuffs. Very pleasant experience actually and came away a happy with more money than i would have accepted yesterday

Providing the dosh turns up in my bank on Thursday, and i have no doubt it will, i will take a large bite out of my hat

We live in North Yorkshire as well :-)

I think the company you refer to is in the same league as the gold buyers and the payday loans people or what used to be the Pawn shops - still are i think. That is, if you need the money they are buyers for sellers in distress. If you dont need it there are better alternatives.

Our economic climate enables them to thrive .... sadly

Hi Fred - did you mean you have had 17 cars in 12 months? If so WOW

Or did you mean years in which case white must really really be rare

Many thanks :-)

This is Pearlescent so does look a bit sparkly in the sunlight (when we get some) but not easily confused with cream. May not be unique here but definately un-common. No issues at all so far and SWMBO is loving it.

On the wheels front - i was prepared not to like the dinner plates but actually now think they look fine. Ours does not have run-flats but has a bottle of gunk and compressor in the bootspace - happy with that too.

The only thing i would change is the ariel - really dates it

As the title says really. SWMBO is really loving the SC and everyone comments on the unusual colour. Looking at adverts there is no other white one around so was wondering just how rare. Does anyone know of another in UK?

The number plate is coming off the car so if anyone wants those initials or is called MIK then could be for you?

If this works then a picture should be attached?
