    Thank you - having re looked at the brochure for 2014 ct200 the European safety pack includes stickers so that's a further indication. My last car an accord had easily removable clip on headlight stone chip protectors so I'd just clip them on in le shuttle (they had the stickers permanently on them) and I clip off on the shuttle coming back - no such option on the ct - c'est la vie !

    Does anyone know or can advise if the headlights need those blanking pieces stuck or are the lights universally adjusted ? I have a 2014 premier - thanks in anticipation Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    A recent Aussie review site states that to achieve closer to the "4.1 litres per 100km eating it (the ct200) requires premium unleaded". Does anyone have a view on the opinion? Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    To answer my own thread - the car arrived in Portbury Dock Bristol on a Thursday morning crack of dawn - it arrived Kent following Friday lunchtime then it was pdi'd and I got it on the following Monday. Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    I ordered one in early jan just after the sales codes were issued and got it in the 31st march - ultra blue and cream leather so a factory order. Other have ordered in feb and quoted end may. Sales are up a lot year on year so factory is having to hear up I guess or lengthen lead times. If you can accept something built on spec for market or colour and trim not important then might be less. However I think all premiers are factory order. They sell less of them and last time I looked there's only about 500 on the road since launch in 2011 Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Panic over guys - having done some more research on a USA forum I've found the reset button. Locate the footwell light and then it can be found about an inch away in a recess. It's tough to find and even tougher to photo with an iphone whilst trying to lay upside down in the drivers footwell lol. Hence why there's no image here! You could try looking with a flashlight whilst covering the footwell light - it was there but tough to find. Happy hunting Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Sorry if I was misquoting I thought TPMS was correct description of tyre pressure monitoring system. If that has indeed been omitted I wonder what else has been misrepresented. I waited for the 2014 because of the raft of add ons from earlier model and to find missings so early on is not good. Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    The lexus product bulletin issued in January 14 says all 2014 UK models would get the TPMS system. I know what the warning light logo looks like but it doesnt appear on startup and the reset switch that's supposed to be present under the steering wheel - I can't locate. I've emailed the dealer. Anyone have an experience with a 2014 in this regard. I've got a 2014 premier. Thanks

    Finally picked up my CT premier today - bowled over by the quality and ride but subdued by the size of the manual!! Will post more when it and I become one - it's in the garage tonite and will be till I get fed up putting it away at night!! Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Update - the premier has landed at the dealer this pm. I can see it in its protective guise tomorrow before it goes into PDI Monday then I get to take possession either late Monday or Wednesday - Tuesday doesn't work for the dealer or I and who wants a delivery on All Fools Day! :) Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Thanks-is the advance on 16 or 17 wheels. As I ordered ex factory in January I had to make a decision and whilst the write up said the ride had been softened in 2014 I erred towards softness and ordered 16's additionally I'd read that the 17's were more prone to keening damage and being low profile were pushing double to replace when worn out. Also the blurb suggests the 16's slightly better mpg and slightly lower co2 - in theory Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Hope you enjoy - up to yesterday my premier is feted for deliver to dealer today - crazy they can't track them more accurately. If it arrives I can't see them starting pdi till monday and they say that'll take two days so that's wed which is almost 2 weeks from the docking. Grrr. I'd like to bet yours was on same ship.

    It's small yes but at just under 1% the chancellor would regard that as significant and material - about the level of an NHS pay award :) Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Iphone apps are - marine traffic, vessel finder and ship finder though the later is least useful. Marine traffic works on google too - type ais fedora to see that ship en route to zebrugge and then Southampton. Don't worry if sometimes far from shore the boat is missing - it hasn't sunk - it's too far from a shore receiver and to get satellite updates is too costly to the amateur viewer.

    Ask the dealer to tell you which ship it's once shipped on then look up ais and name of ship on google you 'll at least be able to watch as it has a world cruise - helped me pass the time. It came Nagoya singapore suez Alexandria Piraeus Livorno Valencia Bristol on the Fedora - lexus seem to use these ships as they are more fuel efficient. There's an app that sent me an email every time it arrived and left a port Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Not lucky - I ordered it 2 days on trust after the uk sales codes for the 2014 model were issued so it will have been 3 months when I get it. Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Thanks Paul - certainly the shrinkage in the boot department will be an issue - my accord recently brought 7 6x3 fence panels home from the DIY store to fix the storm damage. The pale leather also means I'm not going to be able to treat the ct like a van. I hope you continue to enjoy yours - with the intense technology built in I think I'm going to need a lot of manual poring. Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    My new CT docked in Bristol last week and am waiting for local delivery. Did paperwork in the dealer Saturday and sat in a new Advance and an F Sport. Very nice - I'm being told 28th but it could move on that - so near and yet.... Will be sad to see my SE Exec Accord go after almost 13 years - it'll still serve someone well but time for a generational change in technology. Sent from my iPhone using Lexus OC

    Reference Iphone - there is a post on the USA forum http://www.ct200hforum.com/forum/lexus-ct200h-general-discussion-forum/121063-iphone-5-wont-connect-audio.html This might help?? The comment in the thread 9 posted 20/3/14 looks to be the most comprehensive The USA site is a pretty good source to monitor as well as on here. Hope you get some help from it.
