I accept that Colin. But the closer you push any mechanical item towards its limit, you are increasing the risk of failure. Not being careful is still my interpretation.

I don't interpret driving at 140mph as taking great care of the vehicle !!

I didn't say I agreed with it, that's just how it works. Your name is very appropriate !

I have some experience of group tasks in recruitment. You may be presented with a physical model of something with an associated task for the group. Best advice I can give is don't feel restricted by the physical model, explore beyond its boundaries. In other words "think outside the box". Again.....good luck !

No personal experience. Most important thing at the end of the interview is "Ask for the job" ! Good luck Matthew, let us know how you go on please.

Just had a look and it doesn't list participating dealers. You have to contact the Club to find out !

Get a set of these. Great for many removal jobs without causing damage. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-x-In-Car-Radio-Door-Body-Clip-Panel-Trim-Dash-Audio-Plastic-Removal-Tool-Kit/163165216940?epid=2181134358&hash=item25fd67a0ac:g:kSYAAOSwVb5bVvex

Nice one Jonathan !!

My first car was an Escort MkI 1100cc. Drove it home from work 25 miles one evening with no clutch, dead easy, super slick gearbox. Fond memories ! Over 40 years ago now 😱

Good point. Linas is still with his 12 years old IS250.

eBay. Plenty on there, do a search.

I'll take Verbout's advice on this one and leave it to you and Linas to argue between yourselves. I clearly don't have enough experience.

Of course reliability is a factor ! There are many factors contributing to a car's premium status. I agree with a lot of people here, the badge is the main factor in most people's perception of a premium vehicle. However, there are many premium badged models with unreliability built in. As George Orwell would say, " some are more premium than others ". The badge is not the be all and end all in my opinion, "premiumness" is model dependent too. Reliability is of paramount importance too. My RX will do for me 😊.

Thank you for that. Think I'll go for something more vehicle specific if I can find it. Just trying to avoid the astronomic price asked by Lexus. Thanks again.

I was thinking Jon Lord. 😊

Yes.....cavernous !! Got this in mine just a few weeks ago:

Look good ! Do you have a link to the seller please, I'll see if they do them for the RX.

I agree. You can't "partially" go through insurance.....not sure what you mean ? Let your insurance deal with it Linas, that's why you pay the premium.

Had illuminated sills on both my ISs, very nice, don't have them on my RX ☹️

The link itself is enough to put me off. Invites me to sign up via various google, facebook etc. before it'll let me view the product. Not for me on that basis alone.

I'd phone the dealer Wayne.

Well done on your purchase Jonathan. Personally, I wouldn't go for any of the three, just them trying to squeeze the last dollar I suspect. Most important thing is the 3 year warranty. GAP cover is more important on a newer car where initial depreciation is steep. Lexus Protect.....I'm sure you're a dab hand with cleaning and polishing materials. Dints, scrapes and scratches are just every day hazards of owning a motor car, just park away from the masses when you go to the supermarket or retail park. You've put a lot of deliberation into this purchase, I'm sure you'll enjoy it fully. Pictures are always welcome on this site. Good luck !

Yes, I spotted those too.....all from the same source 😮

Well done you !!

What a beauty !
