Thanks Colin, I thought so too :)

One more photo...

Still very much happy with the Sport Nav - easily getting high 30s mpg which Is impressive I think. This dropped on the motorway route to here in Holland and range isn't quite what I'd hoped....otherwise very satisfied.

Been to all of those with exception of Neuschwanstein (future trip). I remember a delightfully baroque conditorei in Landshut which served Lufthansatorte!!! (I'm ex BA). Don't have any specific plans to go to Germany yet but I'm sure I'll get there before too long.

Dan - thanks for your response. I did try Muenchen but it didn't like that either. Umlaut seems the way forward I think. I'm a great fan of Germany having only "discovered" about 12 years ago. Very civilised and, in spite if it all, very often pro British too. Haven't been to the east really but seen quite a bit from Bodensee up to Lubeck. Love cycling along the German rivers.

Will do Rayaan :)

I was playing with the Satnav (non Premuim) and easily managed to specify an address in an obscure Dutch town but when I switched countries to Germany it couldn't find Munich - I even tried Munchen but that wouldn't work either. Do I need spell it with an umlaut as in München? I noticed some strange characters in the left of the display.... Fingers crossed someone knows how to resolve this Andy

Thanks Rayaan I'll have another fiddle with the satnav today and try to learn a bit more. regards Andy

Thanks again David - I'll check out that My Memory function. really enjoying the car and looking did excuses to drive it!

Well to quote from the Mikado DJP..."I've got a little list....let none of them be missed" I've ticked some off but others get added. 1 Do I need to do anything about the headlights when I take the car to Europe soon? Will they be shining into the face of oncoming traffic? 2 Is there a headlight leveller for when I'm carrying heavy loads? 3 I managed to set up my 6 favourite FM stations on the presets after a fair bit off faffing and trying to find "top menus" etc but can I save more than 6 favourites and from other sources (e.g. DAB and AM) into the one favourite list? I believe I can ...is this to do with "ensembles" that i saw on one of my forays into the menus labrynth? 4 I haven't used the Satnav (standard version) much yet but believe that saving a current location (eg a pretty picnic spot) into those stored should be quite easy...i hope! I love the fact that it can offer up to three routes to a given destination but haven't sussed out how I toggle between these options yet. 5 what is the green READY sign indicating? Any help with these will be much appreciated thanks in advance Andy

Rayaans - that's very helpful, thanks very much.

Hi folks I'm continuing to enjoy my F Sport and am gradually getting accustomed to some of the functionality and it's deep menus! I've mostly been pottering about in suburbia but yesterday had a run up the west Midlands and back from London...fuel economy is just a tad over 35mpg which is very acceptable for a car of this weight. I have a list of questions that i need to address.... The hard copy manual doesn't give enough info tbh. you might be able to help... Is it possible to quickly cancel any TP update that is irrelevant to my journey without switching off the functionality completely? My Yeti permitted this. Also... How do I change the Nav clock?...there's no mention of this in the manual.... Got lots more queries too but don't want to wear out your patience. Looking forward to taking the car to the Netherlands in two weeks.... best regards Andy

Thanks Martin J ... That's helpful....I found the portal and have downloaded the manuals. I may resort to YouTube too if necessary ;) i didn't specify any suspension mods so it's in standard trim really apart from protection pack (fishing tackle etc) and removable tow bar (bicycles). You have great taste...the Sonic Titanium looked awesome in the bright sunshine yesterday 😀👍

Thanks folks... ive got no details of an online manual from the dealer in my paperwork... I noticed an American site (.com) ..is there a UK source of the online manuals? Many thanks indeed :)

Thanks for your comments gentlemen.... I love the colour too! :) just been playing with the removable tow bar....a little fiddly at first but that's ticked off my list now...

Hi folks i picked up my new Sonic Titanium NX yesterday and am just beginning to acclimatise myself... Very much enjoying it so far but can't seem to suss out programming in my choice and order of radio stations. The only Radio ref in the manual is for Premuim Nav if fitted, and I don't....just standard Nav. I expect I'll be asking for help soon.. Hope you like the photos regards Andy :)

Thanks for your welcome guys...I expect I'll spend most of my time in the NX sub group....hope to pick up the car on 21st. Then looking forward to it accompanying me on my cycling and fishing trips both here an in Europe. Bring it on :)

Hi Everyone I've just ordered an NX300h F Sport Nav from Twickenham Lexus and expecting delivery later this month. I'm coming from a very enjoyable relationship with a Skoda Yeti 1.4 TSi SE Plus and looking forward to Lexus ownership. I looked long and hard at the seductive Audi Q5 but it's too late in its model life and so chose the F Sport Nav after a couple of test drives. I've specced a tow bar for my Thule bike rack with protection pack and will easily be able to get my fishing rods in the massive boot. looking forward to also to hearing your tales of ownership... best regards Andy Longfellow
