  1. New alloys wheels 8J9J nice :)

  2. Hi Mine is 01 so shouldn't be that big different, for me to take it out from the boot wasn't too hard, just few click from where you can see the label tag, after you removed the tag then you can manage to find the box hiding there, and just click the far left button to open the window and disc will come out automatically, hope that's help you thou :)
  3. Just did a run for Yorkshire to LHR and back after a trip to Thailand... I know my way to LHR very well by now but used the sat nav just in case of detours etc. It did give me options to avoid hold ups twice but I ignored them as I was listening to traffic updates (on the Radio) and it informed me these issues were just about solved. The SC was a joy to drive listening to the best sound system ever (as far as I am concerned) fast enough to leave most things behind and it give me 29.3 mpg for the return journey of 470 miles total in perfect comfort. Most of the time on the motorways etc I was doing well over the legal limit (like nearly everyone else, what is wrong with our roads that the limits are so low. . ...Its like watching paint dry) That's how I think as well, I enjoyed every single time while I'm driving her, no matter the sat Nav wasn't too comparative to others latest probable one, and I'm sure I can put up with it too :) Haven't done any long journey yet, would love to!! At the moment mine doing the running town for every day basic and I'm done about 240-260 mpg so its not too bad, as my previous car twin entry turbo drink like a water too, if there is two cars for me to pick again, no doubt SC is my favours one now, nothing but just love it Bought my alloys wheel for her 8J for front 9J for rear should be looks much better! Can't wait to show you guys :)
  4. Got my updated discs sent though, I'm quite excited but I just been told there is still the same version of the others member who already had that updated, so that mean just bare of mind, the latest version is up to 2010, and cost you about £130 for all, is that worth it or not, is up to you. For myself I know this sat nav may be not the best one in the market, but I just like it as is it, I will take her best and also the worst, so far I think this car is nothing I have any complains except heeehehe Sat Nav, never mine I will get used to it the way she is :)
  5. New Sat Nav Disc arrived woohoo :)

  6. Oh really !! Is your 05 SC using the same version of Mine too?? I thought it will be at least another version by then, hmmm.... I defo know what you mean, as I bought this car miles away from London and I just too innocent to relies on the Sat Nav to bring me back home, however, no success plus a bit got lost. Then I was using my IPhone to guide me until I get back to main motorway .... It was bit scary as its getting dark plus my phone battery dieing tooHaving say that, I'm still insist to have a disc change, if there is still not much improve, worse come to worse Ebay it, I mean the disc, not SC, do you ever drive 06 up SC, people said its much better? If you do please let's me know whether is true or not! Anyway nice to meet you :) My SC is a November 55 plate and its the upgraded 6 speed version with the latest suspension and gearbox. I understand mine is the 2006 model so I think the sat nav is the same as all of them it certainly isn't to good by todays standards.. Also I can operate ( change destinations etc) the sat nav while on the move etc and I understand that's not possible with pre 05 units that have not been upgraded. However don't get me wrong I love the car the 6 speed auto is unbelievably good. Mines black with ivory leather.. Nice one :) Should be much better for handing right, I found this car a bit stuggle! Tbh I love it comfy speeds reliable and Luxy all in one, specially when getting old, comfy is first priority :P will only change this one until the WHITE one come up, with better age, at least 06 models otherwise there is no big deal right :)
  7. That looks really good but unfortunately the sat nav will still be crap. There are not many SCs on the road now and you want to be even more unique. Is what your trying to say ..!! That's why people think I'm mad, personally I'm full of madness of my car, as much as I drive it as much as I want to be more unique, personally I prefer in White , as I always do, however found a white one plus match all circumstances is harder than win a lottery, unless buy a brand new, at the moment I'm still too young can't afford it. Sliver is my first ever lucky this silver wasn't the common one, got a bit bronze metalic there so I eventually bought it otherwise I'm still in hunting :)

  9. I'm not too sure what other people will think, at least there is something different, SC models is not much on the road already so I just want to be more unique :) There is the kits will transform to look like this :
  10. Scud...ney!!!!!! I placed my order already and it will take 6 days to get it !!! woohoooo yeahhh!!!!!!! Thanks again :) Btw my mirror after one day DRYING UP, its still not back to normal yet but its getting there, finger crossed one more day for DRYING UP should back to normal right!!! Recently I mean last week, just changed my battery got them from Lexus, I have been tried Unipart, Halfords but they are either no good or cant find the right one for me, in order to save my time so I get the new battery from Lexus, guess what this is even cheaper than the one sale on Halfords!!! My next project is change the wheels and hopefully to get a body kit.... My previous one is like this, haahhaha girl racer look like :)
  11. I like inbuilt as they looks unique and nice, specially when you got the music on, for those portable one, even though they are much easier to use but they won't be my cuppa T :P I defo will let you know what's happening !! Many thanks
  12. Woohoo I found it :) :) :) Thanks ever so much( with lots of smile ) will order it tonight, the version I got is first, so defo is time to update it :)
  13. Oh I see :) I didn't know it was there silly me, mine is working but its need to update for those new locations I think ( those address I was going to which build about under 8 years ago ), mine SC is 2001 may be too outdated by now, I will going to check tomorrow for searching the disc, if I'm getting stuck can I pm you to get his number! Btw I'm so appreciated, many thanks
  14. Hi Just tried lexusmapudates, however, there is a part number need to entry which I haven't got the original disc, and I really don't know how can I order my new disc though the web site?? is there any alternative to have my sat nav update? many thanks :)
  15. The original set are look good specially as much as you see as much as you get used to it, if you know what I mean :) but I would prefer to see the actual caliper there, and having something different, having say that the benefits to have the old set are easy to clean :P Meeeeee may be just a girl next door but I like car as much as man does, tbh this car can be looks 10X better hahaaaa then again this is personal taste again May get 20' and 285 at rear hahaaa people may think too much but I think that's worth to try :)
